I really need to find out if anyone knows if oil(from when I changd it) can be tested to see how old it is and if anything has been added to it? if so how/where can i get it tested?

Yes, your oil can be tested. Are you running regular motor oil or synthetic?

regular. i was just wondering because i got some work done and they had to change the oil but a little over 2000 miles later i got a collapsed rod and they said the oil was contaminated(now i need a new engine and the warranty company wont pay anything). i had changed the oil 2 days before i gave it to them to try to stop the knocking and the oil the first place "changed" was completely black and i was wondering if they had maybe just used the old oil since i found out they are a shady business
