Stiffer for sure on the 1958 but I attribute that to the E Load Falkens the dealer put on it. My LX had SL Cooper tires that looked aggressive but were much tamer. The LX is far more plush anyway than a LC with adaptive dampers. Less nose dive on the LC though!

Keeping this thread alive. My 24 has had 4 oil changes so far. I skipped sending the 10k change off to blackstone. I have been running genuine Toyota 0w20 (local dealer ran a special on Black Friday - 6 quarts for $32). I do all my own maintenance. Results leave me optimistic that they did resolve the issues. Time will tell.
Its the initial debris getting left in too long taking out the bearings, couple early quick successive oil changes and running a good 30w oil is good practice.
There was visible shiit in the oil on the first change in my 24', my bearing wear metal levels are in the range of your latest test results.
I dont know why your moly is so low if its TGMO, should look like the first test.... you may have got old stock or something , idk.
Needs more moly and higher viscosity IMO but thats opinion....

I thought the moly looked low as well. I am going to continue to do 5k mile oil changes and test every 10k.

I hate to beat a deadhorse but I posted on my 5-30 thread the Mobile 1 specs in several weights.
Probably going to run 0-40 or 0-30 european myself. It ran so much better on 5-30 already but there is room for improvement.
