If it's OK, I might just string it out another 5k.

I'd like to run it to the spring and take a sample to send off for analysis to see what the insolubles and 'dreaded' fuel dilutions are. I'm debating right now what my next move is on that one. I found after the fact that it wasn't really the best choice for the GDI because of its higher calcium rating 2447. In November I changed the Santa fe to the XCESS 5w-40 to Address a timing chain rattle at idle.

This one has a TBN of 6.2 and a cSt of 8.61

I expect to be closer to the 15-20k kms OCI with this one as it's a highway driver exclusively. Oil analysis will be done in the coming year in an effort to push out the OCI on that one after the warranty has expired. At 1500kms per week I'm changing it every 8 weeks around the 10-12k kms mark. Motul ecolite 0w-20- Use this in my cousin's 2019 Subaru crosstrek with 56k kms on it. As per the Motul literature TBN sits at 7.8 and the cSt is a 12.1 putting this one at the boarder of a light 40 weight oil. So I'll be sending in a VOA in the next week. Depending on results I'll run it out another 5k and retest. I just changed it in December and when it hits 10K this time I'm going to pull an oil sample through the stick for analysis. The Santa fe is on a 6000km/6month OCI and the vibe I run to 10k kms usually takes me about 4 months. Xclean EFE 5w-30- I use this I'm my 2006 Pontiac vibe DD and my wifes 2013 Hyundai Santa fe XL 3.3L. Usually change this once a year unless it is tracked as it's a weekend driver. Very robust TBN at 8.8 and a CST of 13.1 puts it at pretty much dead center viscosity for a 5w-40. Oil temps are very good, Oil pressure stays very consistent right to oil change although I've never gone over 5k kms on it. Lots of track use, never let me down yet. I bought it specifically for use in my stage 2+ tuned 2015 STI.

Xcess 5w-40 - This was my introduction to Motul. I'm just getting into UOA's now so it'll be interesting what comes out of that. The cars love them and they run very quietly.
