My latest UOA
This batch was used June, July, Aug.
3000 miles worth of commuting to work.
18 miles each way. 4 city then 14 hwy. I have changed my commute time to start at 6am- and traffic is lighter- allowing for very nice cruise in speeds of about 55 MPH. Afternoons is also 55-60. I am getting 22-25 MPG by leaving at 6am.
The last 2000 miles were put on in 2 days- during labor day.
We drove from Los Angeles to Denver Colorado. 5 on board with luggage.
I used 3,4,5th gear to climb steep hills and to engine brake going down when we made our way thru the Rockies.
OLM was at 50%
I drained out approximately 4.5 qts out of 5.5.
One reason to get the UOA- was to monitor for elevated iron--- which I suspect may point to timing chain wear/stretching that affected many of the earlier 3.6L engines. Pre 2009.
