I found black bits in my filter and thought they were tensioner guide material but when I put pressure on them they crumbled like carbon.....carbon deposits released by my spirited driving perhaps; they were roundish small bits ....quite a bit actually. I am not really sure what they are
....couple of green copper specs along a few silver metallic specs which were cause for concern
