Laboratory Comments @ 5000km:



* Silicon is slightly elevated and may indicate dirt or gasket sealant

* Sodium is critical and may indicate coolant leakage or salt contamination. Check source.

* Other results are satisfactory.

* A normalisation factor of 2.00 has been applied to the wear metals during final analysis.

* Recommend oil be drained and new oil be sampled at half recommended intervals to monitor condition.

Oil analysis performed by Roktex.


Ignore the sodium. It's part of the oil. I'm thinking I'll change the oil in another 5000kms. Any comments?
