that UOA didn't show any wear metals?
I had a highway only interval (not planned) ~7K that showed a spike in metals, I am very careful now! I see wear indicators up at about 5K so I stick closer to 4K if possible, but that may be particular to my motor (B204).

Did you do UOA every change, and for how long, if you'd care to share?
