Default Oil Analysis 2017 TD6

Got my first UOA recently and thought I'd share the results. My D5 has about 92k miles now. This was with Castrol 5w30 from the Land Rover Dealer. I changed the oil myself this time using Ravenol 5w30 and will run another UOA when I change it out. I'm a little concerned with the slightly higher wear metals, hopefully I'll see better results with the new oil. If not I'll probably switch to 5w40.

Cool, thank you for sharing the data
If it helps, I did check with Blackstone about the viscosity being below target.
Their dataset didn't pull up a particular oil consistently staying withing the cSt target range.
