This looks really good to be honest. the engine wear materials are very very low, that is great! the additives in the oil are low, such as the zinc. however also having low calcium is better for DI engines.

your oil viscosity is also alarmingly good! the flash point is a little low but ok, nothing crazy low. I am surprised the OE oil was this good considering you saying its 0w-30. i wonder which oil company is supplying them now, its rather good compared to some other 0w-30 oils.
