Blackstone oil report
I got talked into doing the oil analysis at my indy during my last 5k miles oil change intervval. For $25, I was curious if there were copper shavings. Thankfully I do not see a concern there. Can someone shed some light on the other metal presence. TIA.

The previous owner had the k&n drop in filters. I did not like the idea of cleaning/oiling them. I changed to OEM filters in the last 10k miles.

What brand of oil do you use? I see it is 5w30. The other metals are there to help as cleaners, from my understanding.
Maybe change filters with official ones from bmw and while at it check to have everything sealed. |
