Promised I'd follow up when I changed my oil so here goes. Oil changed at 4000 miles, Castrol Edge 10w-40. These pics are from the inside the oil filter. The dark lines are from the ferrous dust removed by the filter mag. These are extremely fine particles. Unfortunately I was unable to capture the glitter effect from the particles. I'm happy spending a small amount of money to get this out of my oil. Cut open the filter and examined with magnifying glass and strong magnet. No ferrous particles. There were some plastic particles, some gold others dark green I removed and photographed. Sample of oil sent to Cat for analysis. If any interest I can post results of the UOA for comparison. Thanks
