new RDX had factory fill replaced with Mobil 1 0W20 at 5000 miles. Here is 2000 miles sample oil analyzers. RDX is turbo, direct injection I think.
tin 2ppm
silicon 63 ppm
base number 3.10 mg KOH/gram
Oil analyzers said check air induction. silicon at significant level. base number slightly low Tin minor level
fuel dilution 0.1% by GC
OK! I would like all your comments. funny! i was expecting fuel dilution but have silicon. when dealer changed the oil, did they inspect the air filter and put it back loosely?
1. should I replace engine air filter now?
The B6 code came up, change rear diff fluid. I will do that.
2. should I change oil, or not necessary.
I can supply all the wear metals if you want. I could not figure how to supply the whole report. all other values normal
thanks everyone! still learning.
