Hi All,
Looking for feedback on the attached report. Currently I have the new Shell 10W60 M Twin Turbo Power in the car. OAI does not seem to have a baseline for this oil so I actually think the viscosity, calcium, and possibly oxidation are fine.
Looking for feedback on the silicon though. I strongly feel this this is related to seeping from RTV I used on the valve cover gasket 2500 miles ago. After the analysis in May I changed the oil and also the air filter. I made sure everything was secure and checked for leaks. I don't have any idle / drivability issues or lean codes. Question is should I have any concern about an intake leak given this history? There does not appear to be any increasing wear (aside from the iron maybe being a bit high for the mileage on the oil).
Thoughts?
