You insinuated that the paper towel was part of the oil filter.....
You tried to cover your tracks with RIDICULOUS covers.....
You are a troll.....

500 miles for break in purposes.
Wait.. you said previously you had no engine work.. so either this is a new vehicle, or a rebuilt engine? If it was a new vehicle.. I could imagine something getting left behind quality control is never perfect.. if it was rebuilt... well then.. there is a lot of room for human error.
EDIT: I went back in read, you bought this car new.. how many miles on it now?
1000 miles now.

I'm probably wasting my time here, but here goes.
You bought the car new and dumped the ff super early at 500 miles (a complete waste, but that's your choice). Now you put on another 500 miles and dumped the oil and the filter early again? Another complete waste.
I'm trying to understand what is the purpose of this thread? The fact it's got 60+ is somewhat mystifying but I guess I'm just as guilty of feeding the troll by responding.
This almost reminds of the dude who posted in that Camry DIY thread.

I am of the opinion that synthetic oil (what the car came with) does not break in piston rings as well as conventional, and that I need frequent initial changes during break in. So, I swapped out the synthetic upon purchase, and again at 500 miles (with the Purolator), and (most recently) at 1000 miles/3 months (for both warranty and break-in purposes).
The purpose of this thread was simply to share what I surprisingly found in my oil when I changed it, and to possibly receive some educated guesses as to what it is, but sadly, have found mostly trolls to mock me. I will give a "thank you" to all those who didn't troll me, and responded politely with genuinely helpful responses.

I don't presume to have the level of knowledge about oils and filters that most people probably have here, and perhaps many believe I'm trolling as a result, in light of my limited knowledge.

I don't think you're lying about this showing up in your oil drain pan, but I really don't believe it's from the filter. It looks like some sort of debris that may have blown into your pan while draining, or perhaps it was already in the pan before you drained the oil and it blended in because it was already saturated with oil? Just a thought.

Exactly.
1. That would never just flow out of the drain plug hole.
2. And if it did... it would have to ORIGINATE in the oil pan.
this.
I suggest a moderator close, and even delete this thread.

Wow, what a serious waste of oil (and money). Does BITOG still propagate the myth of oil change every 500 miles for break-in? I'm not current with BITOG anymore (I got a life).
