## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING TAXI, THE CHIP DETECTOR LIGHT CAME ON ACCOMPANIED BY A RAPID LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE AND RAPID RAISE IN OIL TEMPERATURE. THE PILOT IMMEDIATELY SHUTDOWN THE ENGINE. ON-GROUND INSP, REVEALED METAL IN OIL FILTER AND ON THE CHIP DETECTOR. THE ENGINE WAS REMOVED AND SHIPPED FOR INVESTIGATION.  MFG WILL CONTINUE INVESTIGATING THE EVENT AND ADVISE OF ROOT CAUSE ONCE ESTABLISHED.
