2.3L MZR DISI TURBO
19500 miles total / 3800 miles on oil
castrol gtx 5w/30
Blackstone Labs report:
No problems showed up in the initial sample from your Mazda. The universal averages
column shows typical wear from this type of engine after 3900 miles use of the oil. You ran this oil
3800 miles, and wear read around average, with bearing wear reading better than average. We think
you could easily go more miles for the next oil change if you wanted. The viscosity was light for a
5W/30, but the flashpoint was normal so we don't suspect you are getting any fuel. No coolant
present. This engine appears to be doing very well. The viscosity isn't hurting anything.
