This is the first UOA for this 2002 Chevy Trailblazer. It looks like the third UOA for this engine if i'm not mistaken. This is the first interval with synthetic oil, it was running Halvoline 5w-30 for almost all of the prior changes but at shorter intervals. 75% driving in this interval was highway use. There was no noticable oil consumption. The oil Filter was not changed during this interval.

Oil was drained when the sample was taken and then filled Mobil 1 5w-30 SM grade and it will be running another year if the miles/year are around the same level. It will probably get something else after that.
