I just got back the first lab report on oil in my Civic Hybrid. I have a few questions,
Gas was found at 1.5%. Could this be due to the eninge shuting down all the time? Those who have a Hybrid understand what I am talking about. When you come to a stop the gasoline engine turns off untill you release the brake. I would have thought fuel management to take care of this.
The car only has 10000 miles on it. This was the second oil change.
Iron-30
Moly-118
Boran-121
Silicon-21
Calcium-2602
These were the only numbers higher than universal averages.
I did use M1 0W-30 as I live in Texas and I was not sure about the 0W-20 Honda calls for. I now use M1-0W-20 as per spec.
