Why do you guys not get TAN and TBN? Just never heard about it or don’t understand it? All the elements tell you a lot about your engine, but it’s the properties at the bottom that tell you the health of the oil, and TAN and TBN are a huge, major part of that.
That's why I used to use Caterpillar for my UOA's, back when I did them, because TBN, Oxidation and Nitration were very useful in assessing the condition of the oil.

It’s not very relevant given my short OCIs.
