I will await the first report of oil devastation with great interest...until that time there appears to be nothing for 2.0 D5 drivers to worry about eh

Why wait? Get a sample done yourself!

The part with the green circle is the SCR thingy and on the D5 2.0 it is bolted onto the engine. The chances of oil dilution are low due to less chance of incomplete or partial regen's. No cases so far that I have heard about. However, analysing the oil is a good idea and I already have a Millers oil analysis tube here But I think you should definitely be checking yours. -

Hi Soli,
is that a MY19 D5 2.0?
Because for MY17/18 I know where the DPF (SCR) is located and that it therefore doesn't suffer from the oil dilution issue. But I wrote that already a couple of times.
And again: I am not talking about oil dilution issues here. (Why do I have to keep saying this? )

There you go guys...
Those are my oil test results (2.0L 180 PS Disco Sport). You can see that there is no oil dilution issue, but severe levels of iron and aluminium in the oil.

Isn't that the answer to the universe?
Still no results for the D5 to compare to the DS
The telling thing is that in year 1 ...wouldn't you anticipate higher results due to 'running in' ...I appreciate that most engines don't require a full running in regime compared to 40 years ago but nevertheless engines always 'loosen up' after the first year ...your figures show a significant reduction in mg year 2. -

Fair point
...your figures are in 'mg per kg' how does that compare to the usual measure of ppm? -

mg / kg is the same as ppm.
P.s. Gonna test my D5's Lion when it reaches the 10.000 km (6.000 miles). But this is gonna be some day upcoming February. So not very soon.

OK thanks just getting my head around it ...so 0.000358 KG or 358ppm -

Well yeah it's 0,000358 kg iron in 1.0 kg oil. (Which is the same as 358 ppm.)
So after 23.383 km (14.529 miles) there is 2.5 grams of iron in 7 liters engine oil. Which is the amount of an inch long M4 screw.
