I have had my deisel about 6 months now. I had the oil tested for clues to engine performance and the tests show high soot levels after only 3500 miles between oil changes. I change the oil filter each time.

How about a quick lesson on soot? How does it get into the oil? Can it accumulate in the oil passages? Is there something that can be added to the oil to clean the crankcase etc?
