Hey folks,
First oil analysis on my 99 4Runner with 3RZ-FE engine. At the time of the oil change the engine oil (Rotella 5W-40 CJ-4) had about 5000 miles on it and the engine had 235k.
Everything looks good except for the 180ppm of sodium. The lab states that they think it comes from the oil additives but both the CJ-4 and CK-4 VOAs don't show sodium: https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/4490450/1/Shell_Rotella_T6_5W40_CJ-4/SM_
