Here are the results of the first UOA on my 2003 Passat 1.8. The car had approx. 81,500 miles on it at the time of the sample. The oil had 4,126 miles on it and was in the car for a week shy of six months. Work is only about 1.5 miles away so the car does see a lot of short trips.
Overall, I am quite pleased; the wear metals look good, the viscosity held up and the TBN is strong. There is that fuel issue but I guess it is manageable.
The air filter was changed during this OCI.
She has GC in her now.
