I believe these shavings are an early sign of my lifters going south. They are all silver in color and some look like shards that were sheared off. I noticed the shaving during my prior OCI for the first time and it’s the same now. I don’t recall seeing them in this quantity before. Engine sounds quiet with only occasional tick at cold startup that lasts about a second.
This is my 2015 Grand Caravan, 70k miles on the clock, 5w30 oil changes roughly every 5k miles all done by me since new. Oil level always full.
Also, the pictures don’t really do them justice. The shavings and specs are present in all pleats and at much greater numbers than I was able to capture.
What do you guys think?
