2015 GLA250 oil analyses 2,3,4,5 & 6 - Troubling

See attachment.

After analysis #2 indicated the factory fill oil was diluted to an SAE 20 viscosity I simply had to change it out. I did not change the filter so that is why analysis #3 with 1 mile on the oil shows 0.6%. The 752 miles shown on analysis #6 is after four weeks of typical short-trip commuting (10 miles but sometimes less) usage. As you can read, the lab suggests changing it.

Not sure about any of you but I find this unacceptable.

Let me suggest that if you have an engine with direct injection and do short trips it is probably suffering the same fate.
