Greetings folks; sharing some UOA reports, hoping these are useful for the community.
Any insight & feedback is welcome!

I plan on testing a handful of brands & specs.

The Titanium seemed to have come down. That engine seems to have higher Iron than what I've seen from BS averages on other engines. Thanks for sharing these and good job.

Thank you for sharing.
Not a single sample stayed in grade.
What is the diesel fuel ?City vs highway use ? The unusual viscosity loss and the lowered flashpoints make it a candidate for a fuel dilution test elsewhere.
P.S. Checked some some UOA results of LR 3.0 & 2.7l. -all stayed in grade (one exception was a certain 5w-50 in a 2.7l. -it sheared to -40,as expected).
