2023 Audi RS5 Coupe, 2.9 TFSI, Ravenol VSW 0W30 (VW504/507) w/OEM Oil Filter, 4,442 mile OCI, and 5,567 total miles.
Replaced with Ravenol VSW 0W30 (VW504/507) and OEM Oil Filter.
Will continue to maintain 5k mile OCIs.
Blackstone Comments: Break-in materials are washing on schedule. Iron looks good on a ppm per mile basis. The engine only made 4.28 ppm of iron per 1,000 miles this time compared to the 15.11 ppm per 1,000 miles last time. Granted, most of that was from parts breaking in, but it shows the excess metal washing out and a normal wear rate from steel parts. Copper is being a bit pesky, but is less than half of what it was after the first oilchange. Silicon is low enough now we can tell that the induction system is keeping unfiltered air out of the equation. Looking good at ~6K miles.
