Did you use the "moly additive" *during* the interval were we see the high metal rates? They could be coming from the additive.
I have always questioned the wisdom of using American spec diesel oil in a car that requires ACEA A3 rating. I doubt Rotella could be having such affect on your wear rates but who knows.
I would suggest measuring your oil pressure with a gauge. At least you can eliminate an oil pump/oil pickup problem this way. The idiot light is calibrated to come on when oil pressure drops to almost zero, so don't go by that.
With numbers like this I would be very concerned, unless you can suspect that they come from contamination.
