When wiil you do the first oil change?
When did you do your first oil change or if you just got your car when do you plan to do the first change? I'm going to do the first one myself but can decide at how many miles. I'm thinking maybe at 5K or at the end of the summer. My car is 3 weeks old.

I'm planning to do one at 2K and have it sent off for analysis.

only have 456 miles on ours. just got it last saturday, with only
3 miles on delivery. plan to change out the oil at 1,000 - 1,200 miles. And I'll probably follow a 7,500 mile interval from that point. Haven't priced what the Phoenix area dealer's charge for the change just yet. Maybe I'll do it myself. |

When the car calls for it(every 15,000). Free service, Im not paying a penny more on a lease.

Got my oil change today @ 2800 miles and it looks pretty dark, I think oil change right after break in period is good for the engine.

I just got mine changed at 14000 but moving forward I'm probably going to change it myself every 5-7K and get the free ones as they come up in the cycle.
