Quick sample pulled with a pump. Wanted to check the fuel, since this vehicle does idle to warm up for a few in the morning. Looks ok.

Looks fine to me. I let my car idle for at least 15 min every morning in the winter. The summer I let it warm up for around 10 min. I've never seen fuel dilution in my uoa's. Wear numbers are pretty low for a new engine.

Looks good, especially for a vehicle with such low miles.

i dont know really much about UOA, i have aa 2015 wrx and i was thinking of using ESP 5-30, what would you think about 0-40? i live in CA where the climate isnt as cold, i wouldnt want the oil to shear either under spirited driving 30+minutes

Looks good! Off the top of my head, this may be the first 2015 FXT UOA that I've seen. As you probably know, a lot of '14's were showing very high fuel dilution even without idling. One FXT owner posted on this forum with 6% fuel dilution.

After all of the mysterious MIL's and "secret" reflashes, maybe FHI made some changes to the factory tune. I would keep an eye on it though. Thanks for sharing!

I've considered using T6 (5/40) in this vehicle, as I use it in others. I still might, but may keep running the ESP as long as I can still find it.
