Yesterday was the intial startup for the motor, I used regular 10w30 and started it for the first time, ran it for like 20 mins and then it cool down. I drove it again before changing it but not very far, I let it cool down and changed the oil today.
There was no big chunks of metal, there was some small material on the magnetic drain plug. On my fingers the oil looked new, as well as when I checked the dipstick. I put the oil in a clear container and out in the sun it looks kind of like metal flake, but very small, nothing I can touch or feel, but it reflects from the sun and is glittery. Is that normal for a first oil change?
Just wondering, I would assume some metal would be expected because the most wear the motor sees is on that first run? What do you think?
