Hi all,
I’ve recently had an oil report done on an n57 3.0 twin turbo diesel. The numbers have come back worryingly high. I also think the oil may have 20k + miles it as well (got to love the European servicing).
Can any of you guys offer thoughts?
All readings PPM
Iron 250
Chromium 7
Alu 47
Moly 96
Copper 27
Lead 0
Tin 3
Nickel 13
Silicone 20
Sodium 4
Boron 28
Vanadium 0
The total insoluble matter was 2.2% which I assume to be soot from the longer oil run.
I’m pretty worried, have since flushed and changed the oil. I plan on sampling at 1k miles to see if there is a (hopefully) lower reading of ppm / thousand miles.
What are your thoughts / suggestions?
