Oil analysis
For those who are interested.....(don't bother posting regarding the contact info) I'm the least bit worried. None of us are that special. As you can see oil will easily live beyond 1 year. Easily....

I don't see the need to have an oil analysis done unless you are having problems or maybe want to purchase a used vehicle.
To have them tell me my oil is good for another year isn't worth the time and money.
Just do an oil change.
Maybe the oil is still "good" but to keep any oil in a motor for over a year is just asking for problems.
There is still stuff in the oil that's hard on seals and gaskets.
Incorrect. If that were the case the oil analysis would have showed that. If one is worried about something in the oil that's typical of oil after haven been ran a few thousand miles what's a few thousand miles more?
Nope
Go ahead and keep your old oil in it.
You'll find out the hard way long term
All my long term vehicles have never had an oil related issue due to preventative maintenance and never wasted my money on an oil analysis.
