Shell Rotella T6 5w-40 round two 1999 saab 9³

Round two of running shell rotella t6 full synthetic oil in my 1999 saab 9³ with B204L engine. This is after running 8000 miles on the first change of switching from Mobil 1 to Rotella. I usually to change oil at 6000 mile intervals, but we went a but over this time. I use fram ultra synthetic oil filter, XG3614.. I also opened up the filter do some off the insides can be seen. Maybe next time I will weigh the new one and old one after the old one fully drains.

When you rubbed the oil between your fingers you could tell it still had a slight gold tint. I recommend always using an oem filter.

You think they have a bigger oil filter but that's what you use? Remind me to never take my car to the great, lifelong mechanic ((Neil Dale)).
