Guys as a follow up to my 5k interval oil change from new, attached is my blackstone oil report. Looks like even though the oil was sooty and black, the lab guys don't see any reason to change it at 5K.

I'm thinking for the next test, I'll go with 10K oil change, but do a filter ONLY change midway at 5k. A $23 is service better than $90 service; especially if it proves the oil change is not needed.

PS> I'm not looking to start a debate on long vs. short oil change intervals, just providing facts from my oil analysis.
