25k on car, 10k on oil, oil life indicator at 15% and "change needed" indicator had just come on. Driving was 70/30 highway/city.

I'm happy with the wear metals here, but not impressed with the oxidation and nitration numbers. I may have to go to a shorter OCI with this oil. OR may have to go with a more robust oil? Suggestions?
