Valvoline Pemium Blue Extreme 5W40 and first Speediagnostix report

[VegasPowerstroke6.7]

My 2017 6.7 PSD just turned 100k and I decided to get an oil analysis at speediagnostix. Oil was just under the 5k mile mark when changed which has been the normal interval since new. I also have a bypass filter on the truck, but have never tried to go extended change intervals. Truck fill is 16 qts and did not have any top off oil. I might try to go to 7500 and test again this time.

Very good report! Seeing more of these Calcium and magnesium ratios. Good Viscosity for 5k and a 5w-40. Did you buy this truck new?

I did buy the truck new with 11 miles on it. I was very happy with the viscosity, I have only done an oil analysis 1 other time at 50k and the Schaeffers was down to 11.6 which was a little disappointing.

I figured since usually first owners take care of them & your sample is really good..quite stellar to be frank. Thanks for the response.

The fuel dilution seems almost unbelievably low. No TBN? Just oxidation?

Looks very good.

That is the same oil that I run in my semi trucks.
It has been doing really well.
