Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Their OH lab will provide a fuel dilution reading, using gas chromatography, for no extra cost.

OilVue can detect large size wear metals using the Particle Quantification Index (PQI), which Wix will not.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Looking to have engine oil and gear oil samples analyzed. Any Porsche analyst suggested would be appreciated.

POST 2Original post

POST 3Original post

SpeedDiagnostix https://lnengineering.com/products/s...-analysis.html Blackstone is good and cheaper, but if you want a Porsche specific diagnosis, stick with SpeedDiagnostix.

POST 4Original post

I just gave OilVue a try but haven't received the report yet.

POST 5Original post

If this is your first UOA, might be interesting to send 2 samples to 2 different labs and see how they compare. Not a huge added expense and it would make for a compelling thread, lol

POST 6Original post

I�ve been using the Wix UOA kits for years. You can usually find them fairly cheap on Amazon from time to time, or full price at O�Reilly. All of the Wix kits get sent to a place called ALS Tribology, which has locations around the US. I used to send my samples to the Atlanta office but now I mail to their lab in Ohio. Their OH lab will provide a fuel dilution reading, using gas chromatography, for no extra cost. All you have to do is write �please perform Fuel by GC� on the submission form. Oh, the Wix kits also include TBN readings for free. I will say that ALS�s analysts don�t seem to have any expertise with the M96, but I don�t care as I analyze the results myself. The OilVue kits mentioned above are also analyzed by ALS. OilVue can detect large size wear metals using the Particle Quantification Index (PQI), which Wix will not. Conversely, OilVue will not do a fuel dilution test like Wix.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
