That reminds me of when I first read about the
IMS Guardian. At first it made a lot of sense to me, like a chip detector in an aircraft, see the signs of a failure before it becomes catastrophic.
Then I realized: In an aircraft it may give you a warning in time to safely get to the ground, the engine or transmission is still going to need a rebuild. In an M96, it just lets you know that you are screwed and gives you a chance to pull over before you leave engine parts and oil in the road. You are still just as screwed as you would be finding metal in your filter at an oil change.
