    Blackstone Labs or Hot Shot's Secret.

    Do you think you have an issue or are you just curious?

    BlackStone.
    Spend the cash and get the sample with TBN.
    You will actually see what is happening in your engine.

    Once my 2017 reaches around 35K miles I will begin pulling a UOA about every other OCI.

    By that time the Break-in wear metals should begin to slow down and receive some what of a accurate sample reading back.

    Yes defiantly pay a bit extra for the TBN --> This will give you a general idea on how far to extend your OCI.

    Polaris Labs is another go to.

    Re: Oil Samples

    I’ve done a few with Blackstone. I did the first 3 changes to make sure it was wearing okay.

    I haven’t done it since, but I don’t drive it much. I have a 16 with 36k on it. I’m considering doing one at 50k just to see the difference. I get the TBN too, and with AMSOIL, the results have been great.
