Oil Analysis - High aluminum and iron, what does it mean?
Just got my first oil analysis back, car is a 2003 C4S with 115,670km. Anything to worry about?

I don't have an answer for you but may I suggest you contact the people who did the analysis or call LN Engineering or Flat6 Innovations, they may help.

FLA996TT is correct. Call the lab that did your analysis and they'll explain it to you.
