[QUOTE=awesomez;206971]There are people that complained with oil getting too hot as well as loosing a lot of oil. I must say I haven't had either issue with my car using ester oil. While it may be a gimmick, if you have either of the problems I recommend you try it.[/QUOT

My first oil and filter change was at 2800 miles.I then used Mobil 1 and now have 4100 miles.The mark on the dipstick is right where it was when I filled it at the change.I made sure it was filled to the top mark and still there.
As to using oil from when I got the car I have no idea as to how high on the dipstick they filled at the factory?I do know from when I got it it didn't use any oil to the 2800 miles.
So I'am real happy with no oil consumtion so far.As for the engine noise some have talked about I have never had any from day one.Before the change or now!
The oil temps were never a problem for me.I've driven the car 80 mph on the freeway for over 45 minutes and outside temps were 91 degree's and very humid and never over 220.So as I said I'am very satisfied with the car in that respect.
I'am sure if the car was at the track it would require a cooler at that point.Don't track the car so no issues.
