So, first subie and I love it, after my totaled Rallifart I came to the darkside (subie guys were always friendly and Mitsu community was nonexistent).

Anyways, now that i'm 50,000+ I decided to try out these oil reports some people talk about just for ****s and giggles, except I have a very high Silver reading. I'm running rotella T6 last 3 changes but really can't tell a difference one way other another after I switched from RP and have been using it cause it's cheap.

I have never modded the car but I did buy it at 30,000mi so idk what was done to it prior but i'm worried now because of this. Any ideas or should I stop worrying?

I found very little attempting to search for Oil analysis, Blackstone and Silver on here and only a few not helpful on other forums. If you search for Oil or any words with it you find the never ending posts about which is the best..

Any ideas? Is Daisy about to kick it? I got another filter and have been considering doing a short interval to send away for comparison but I don't know if it would help, nor do I know how to check if the bearings are dying.

Help me I-clubonekanobi, you're my only hope since when I asked Heedz all he said was "Thats weird, i'm going to Vegas."

..I hope a tranny makes out with him.

 

But silver is alarming. It could show a bearing issue in this engine. Watch oil pressure and check back.

 

You both are fired.

Wouldnt there be other metals significantly raised though?

 

Apparently not.


Bearings are pure silver?
