We have been doing this now for several years.

Over time, we also get to see the impact of these oils on the components when we do normal maintenance on the cars, as well as the occasional tear down when specific repairs require it; which gives us the chance to compare the car's cumulative UOA's with the conditions we find with in the engine. We base our oil recommendations on the culmination of all of this information.
Excellent service to your customers, JFP in PA! I also do UOA's for my Porsches, including gear oil. The reports are very helpful when you start to build data points over many miles and several years worth of reports. Have you ever posted on this Forum any of your UOA's? May I have a link, if you have. Thanks.

But, I'd like to know why JMatta thinks he's "having great results for years". Does he do UOA's on his specific car? Is he extrapolating your data into his car? Just curious about how he measures the results.
