Holy titanium! What in the world is going on?
The lab recommended to run an Analytical Ferrogram for $116.67. I have not chosen to do that yet but reckon I should?
The fill plug has a magnet but didn't have much material.
I've refilled with same fluid since I had to have the pickup, but at the very least will do a shorter OCI.
