Mixed reviews on BITOG after a quick search... tough to find good oil analysis data

As to why I care -- the same reason everyone else does. You want to put oil in your baby that you trust to keep it together and running smoothly. I just like to make these decisons based on the best available data, that's all.

In the absence of wear data, you're left with with untested hypotheses about what an oil's spec sheet means and faith.

This is the "oil nerds" thread after all
I understand what your saying but as previously stated by many here there is no "perfect" oil to meet everyones needs..everybody has different driving habits and weather to contend with..UOA's really mean nothing to us as those are specific to YOUR vehicle only..
