Very consistant between the 3 UOA's.
I'd like to know what your latest TBN was and the comments from the Blackstone Lab!

Is the moly on the last sample supposed to be 61 and not 16? Otherwise we have a formula change?

DO the Motorcraft OE and Honda Genuine use the Ti compound yet?

Looks fine, though the 5w looks to has a higher flash than the 0w (as anticipated). Id stick with the 5w in winter.

I would guess the tbn to be similar to the november '12 report. At least he had something to go by.

Thanks OP for posting! Looks good!

In the recent pqia 5w20 voa's the conoco phillips brands all showed about 15 ppm of moly and a little less boron as well.

Good questions. Hopefully not a formulation change. I don't think the OE's have had any reason to switch, you're correct that the original Philips 66 HGMO had no Ti. I think Motorcraft and HGMO are basically TropArtic, not Kendall.
