by the way, i'll be changing my oil soon and i will have the oil tested for everyone to see. once again, this is for science experiment purposes so please be nice.
I’ll be following this thread.

I just changed my oil in June after exactly two years, but I had only driven 3,000 miles. Before COVID, every 5,000 miles (~twice a year) with Toyota filter and Mobil 1 since I’ve owned my 4th gen. I’ve never had my oil tested but, so far, no oil-related problems (knock on wood). I’m at 180k miles now.

I’ve read on this forum that fuel and water can contaminate the oil over time.
