well, i changed the oil and saw a few metal flakes, so i panicked. cut the old filter open, and there were bits of meal in there as well.. I decided it was better to pull the engine and give it a good look, yanked everything apart. To my surprise everything looks pretty dang good. a few of the bearing have some wear. here are some pictures, what do you all think? where else should i check for metal? pull the oil pump apart?   http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd23/19cturbo/57BFC219-876C-4B69-A6
