ANTHONY: Wear is very low in this sample from your SRT-4, which is great considering that your oil change interval was about 1,000 miles longer this time than your previous sample. Insolubles were high, so it looks like your oil filter was having a bit of trouble keeping solid particles out of the oil, but with everything else looking good, and assuming the filter was changed, insolubles should improve next time. The viscosity was correct and no contamination was found. The TBN is still good at 4.5 (1.0 is low), so this oil can go longer. Try 6,000 miles and check back.
