Another oil change and surprise

Well, I have had my Boxster for just over a year now and just did my 3rd oil change.

Cut open the oil filter and low and behold I found............

Oil, plain old oil and nothing else :dance:

Sent an oil sample out to Cat for analysis. Per JR, they do a much better test than Blackstone and I was surprised to find out it's cheaper as well, only $18.

I should have the results in a few days. It will be interesting to compare it to a Blackstone report. I saved another sample as well and may send it to Blackstone to see how the numbers compare with Cat

Guess I'm one of the lucky ones (knock on wood)
