Okay i have seen you post this a few times and now i am curious. could you please provide where i could find research material for the new 2017 oils?Don't expect the oil analysis businesses to tell you but for the new motor oils introduced in 2017 the oil analysis it completely worthless. Millions of man hours went into the design and testing of engines designed to use lower viscosiity motor oil and the same is true for the multi-billion dollar oil companies.
Fleet operators have oil analysis done for their trucks with diesel engines where their operating environment is quite different and where raw diesel can get past the rings and inside the crankcase but their focus is in large part in maximizing oil change intervals was when an oil change is being done that vehicle is out of service for a day and that is the cost they want to minimize.
Unless you want to change the oil at greater intervals the oil testing is a waste of money.
