Hello and --- Oil

[Rich Ski]

Hello All,

   Thank you for letting me join here to contribute and gain knowledge of our vehicles. My wife and I have a red 2022 CR V Touring edition. We have just had it now for just over 2 years and have 10,500 miles on it. We had a 2015 Touring that we sold with 29,000 miles on it prior to this purchase.

    I am a 78 year old male that has been around autos, trucks, motorcycles, tractors for a long time. I have done all of the work on our vehicles to keep them going. I am somewhat confused by the way her car ( BTW its our first and last turbo ) has responded to oil changes. I change the oil at 4800 -5000 miles. ( I always changed my oil at 3000, 3500 miles years back prior to Full Synthetic ) After a oil change, at around 800-1100 miles the oil is turning black, it shocked me, I assume because of the turbo. 

   It just turned 3000 miles and the M.M is on 30 % . Is this normal ? I have been reading of some horror stories with the 1.5 turbos, should I be or not ?

    Thank you for letting me vent.
