Oil Diagnosis

Been a while since I've been here!
Here is the report from my last oil sample.
Oil was changed at 4400 miles.
Any idea why Iron content is so high?

Up to 16k I had a consistent 40+ ppm of iron. It does not make sense with your previous uoa's, copper dropped off nicely but Aluminum has increased as well. Don't know what else to suggest, except to keep doing uoa's to monitor it. Looks like you are running delo with all of that moly in it.
