That is one of the better UOA's I have even seen on a Hemi, with that calcium it doesn't appear to be an oil you want to leave in for a long interval, but there is zero problem with that copper wear in a Hemi. Most seam to be 40-70ppm copper wear in Hemi's.

Good to hear I only had 1500 on this oil change I may just switch to a dino and Do it every 3-5k and be done with it. I did the analysis because I have a weird sound in mds when coasting. I was worried about the lifters and or valve train. The sound I whole heartedly beilve is the timing chain guides are wore out not very common but have found a few with same problem and i feel I can rule out major valve train issues.

That is why it is so good, lol. Only 1500 miles, this I did not know. But, there is nothing out of the norm for sure. I drive in tow haul 24/7, I don't like the bogging sounds as well in my 2010 6 speed. Sounds like a plan, I really like pyb for a dino oil, crazy good for 15 bucks 5 qrts at walmart.

I run in manual select 5 all the time. If I'm coasting in mds it sounds like a locus It's awful but If I keep mds off no noises.
