    In some applications oil is not changed and only the filter is changed. Most are in more high pressure and more extreme than our engines will ever see in there life even at million miles.

    No way that engine would last 92K miles on a single engine oil change. It would be sludge. Now gear oil maybe.

    BMW's are fine. It's the people not caring enough for their engine

    So, as cmack said, WTF does that mean?

    Toyota has a high rate of sludge in some of there engines. Few i have seen it was poor design by toyota by not channeling the oil away.
