Oil Analysis

Engine has above-average oil analysis results. Visual inspection of cams (pics in image galleries above) during VANOS cover service show no visible wear on cam lobes!Transmission has exceptionally above-average oil analysis results. Image galleries above have some pictures of gears+synchros that were visible during DCT service: absolutely no visible wear at all!The engine, engine bay, and everything underneath have been fully de-greased by hand, so any future fluid leaks will be immediately obvious and easy to diagnose.
