Question, has anyone had a UOA predict a long term sign of failure? As far as I can tell there are plenty of failures just end up "happening." Few people also talk about how they drive besides a base adjective like "spirited" or "babied" or what have you, though it's understandable not everyone would be running telemetry like a maniac, and I've yet to see previous mentions of UOAs in failure threads.
Most of the UOA reports I've read here mostly boil down to "X is a little high but everything looks great despite track/autox/ extremely high oil temperatures/low oil pressures, go for [more than manufacturer recommended 7500 miles]." It's hard (for my untrained eye anyways) to get a clear picture of what are the safe limits of the car under most circumstances. It's also disconcerting to hear people who have tracked their car without oil coolers and have thus far been totally fine.
