Just ordered me some DT40

We have many customers using the DT40, myself included, and none of the cars were pre flushed. To date, all of the UOA's look excellent.

And you really do not need to change your oil every 3K miles, 5K is just fine.

Is it safe to assume that you are basing the 5000 miles advice on personal experience backed with lab analysis?
