Oil changing color all of a sudden

[cangreylegend]

Has anyone ever notice if the color of their oil stays relatively clean and then all of a sudden it starts to quickly change color. Any thoughts? I know color doesn't mean oil is shot but still...

I did notice this too. It's got to do with the oil filter not filtering as efficiently anymore. I changed the filter, and my oil gradually cleaned up. Leo
