Yes you can... You get an oil analysis

They tell you averages on wear for your kind of engine and where your engine stands. They look at all the different elements inside your engine and tell you if excess iron is showing up in your oil for instance. That would mean your crank is probably wearing away faster than it should as well as all the other parts.

I got one and they told me that my oil, engine wear, oil filter, and air filter are all doing a great job. This lab told me I can do 8000 oil changes as long as I keep using the stuff I'm using
