Here is another oil analysis of my everyday vehicle. During an oil change, 800ml of used oil remain in the engine and the mobile 1 fs 0W40 was at a VOA at 3ppm. This resulted in an element concentration of 8ppm iron per 20000 kilometres if I roughly overview it. I find this engine absolutely unique, especially since copper is also extremely low and aluminum has not risen further at just under 10000 kilometres. Here you can see again how well even long oil intervals work, the Mobil 1 Fs 0W40 is for me with one of the best oils on the market!

No, it's not a typo. The car is first hand bought from me, as a new car and driven exclusively by me. All maintenance absolutely on time at Honda done and exclusively Honda MTF 3 transmission oil every 120000 km and Mobil 1 0W40 every 20000 kilometres renewed.
 
Here is an overview of all oil analyses of this vehicle, where the element concentrations per 1000 kilometres are shown. Some get already after 5000 kilometres or a few operating Hours headache, this car was actually always operated with about 350 operating hours and an oil filling, the engine runs absolutely top.It can be clearly seen that an earlier oil change with this vehicle brings nothing except that you spend money pointlessly. This engine is truly sensational.

In the last analysis it can be seen that the elemental concentration of iron at almost 10000 kilometres has only increased by 3ppm, really amazing.
