Good
Suspect that oil changed or top up occurred after 190628 km as the oil properties improved and wear metal levels decreased.
Viscosity is slightly decreased.

Good Good
The oil is showing signs of degradation as the oil acidity (TAN) increased. No increases in wear metals levels. Oil changed.
1st sample received since last 11000 km. Oil acidity (TAN) and water content high. Increase in iron (Fe) content indicates worn crankshafts, valves, cylinder liner and or bearings.
Incoherence between oil mileage and oil properties and wear metals levels. Suspect that some usage information may be erroneous rendering trending difficult. Possibly 2 cycles completed.

OK, Plan change
Suspect oil was replaced since 219259 km. Oil properties and oil-wetted components health are OK. High sand/dirt (Si) level.
Increasing iron (Fe) level indicates wearing of crankshafts, valves, cylinder liner and or bearings. High oil acidity (TAN). Oil was replaced.

High copper (Cu) content indicate worn bearings and or bushings.
Drastic copper (Cu) content increase over the last 7000 km indicates severely worn bearing and or bushings.
The oil properties were good throughout the 1st cycle. Severe signs of worn bearings and or bushings were evident at the beginning of the cycle indicating that the oil change extension didn’t cause the component excessive wearing. 1 cycle completed.
