    Thanks for the info. I’ve found so many companies out there but wasn’t sure which were quality ones.

    I use my local Caterpillar dealer, their SOS fluid analysis service. The kit SOS-1 is about $16 which includes a prepaid shipping label. Also, I'd buy their extraction tool, SOS-PUMP if you don't have a port, very nice as the design is such that the oil does not come into contact with anything other than the bottle and the tubing that goes down the dipstick, it's about $27 and well made in a case. Best price I've found.

    I have a 2015 Volvo D13 780 with about 850k
