I was curious how does the virgin oil changes just after it’s poured into the engine, so I made UOA after only 86 km. Here it is:
TBN dropped a bit, but what seems to be most interesting is iron level. Although I drained as much previous oil as I could and removed the remaining oil from filter chassis, there is still significant level of residual iron left in the pan. This may be possible explanation of ‘increased engine wear right after oil change phenomenon / iron spike’ mentioned in this thread:

The engine is only 13 000 km and is still runnig in.
For comparison, you can check the VOA of this oil here:
