Maintain your fluids; consider upgrading to synthetics. Redline seems to the top choice among forum members.

Check your oil regularly. The oil light on the dash is for low oil pressure and will not inform you of low oil until you're several quarts low and damage is already being done. The VQ is a solid engine, but like any engine, if you don't take care of it, bad things may happen.
