Seems like everyone is getting some high fuel % in their oil. Anyone shed some light what I can look at or is it just a common thing of no concern?

Noted, I did use BG44K system cleaner in the tank before dropping the oil. I ran through a tank and half so it should have mostly cleared through. Mods are the Mishimoto IC pipe and GFB DV+.
What mileage was your first oil change done at?

EDIT ADD:

After some research this doesn't seem to be that concerning. I'll lower my interval to 6,000mi the next time and see if that made a difference.
It is normal for a DI engine. I wouldn't get too worried. I run Mobil 1 EP 5w30 in my Ecoboost and go 10k between changes. It is a 2015 and is doing fine. At 5k to 8k most synthetic oils can handle it.

What oil did you run?

Dealership does my oil changes because I'm a secret shopper (shhh) and I can get everything reimbursed so it becomes free. They're putting in 5Q of Syn+ 5W-30, I always ask them more times than annoying and check the dipstick also before leaving. Brand type is whatever Mopar runs I'm guessing.

It is likely Pennzoil Platinum, which is very good.

Going way to long in the oil change interval thats why the fuel % is creeping up. 3k on Dino, 5k on synthetic........maybe 6k thats it. Oil is chaep, engines are not.
