[QUOTE="Tanker_01, post: 425865, member: 18763"] That was my first thought too but no coolant loss and nothing in the coolant at all. I know what oil in a failing head gasket looks and smells like and this seems altogether normal other than the small particles. I think I'm with you on just changing oil and filter and see what comes out. I will cut open the oil filter and pull the filament apart to check for metal shavings. Might pull the oil pan too since its relatively simple on this engine just to see if anything is in there. I put a big magnet in the bottom of the oil pan to see if I catch anything on it. [/QUOTE]
