This UOA is from a friend's car. His car has the same engine as mine, so you may want to compare his result to mine, especially since we both put essentially the same amount of miles on the same oil in the exact same type motor. His engine may have a few performance modifications, while mine is almost stock. Please discuss!

For comparison, my UOA:

Please note similar oil consumption of both engines. I have mentioned in the past that upward of 0.5 qts/1k miles oil consumption is common in those engines (Even if they don't leak).
And you are right, I have talked a few of my fellow Audi owners into using M1 5W-40 and into UOAs. I'm hoping to see more of them.
