mick · 02-11-2011, 10:19 PM

i remember the last time i brought my car in for an oil change. the service advisor looked at the mileage indicator and said "the last oil change was less than 1k miles ago"

why would you change it after only 1k?

the owner's manual suggests that the oil be replaced every 3 months but i drive so little that i decided to replace the oil every 6 months. i don't think i should double it and replace the oil once a year.

I already have 600 miles on mine since Dec. 27, 2011 and only drove it a handful of times. My mileage gauge must not be calibrated?

It's reads a little high (about 3-7%, like most cars) but should be accurate. You'd have great grounds for a lawsuit if it wasn't.

Man you roll that mug don't ya, this is not a collectors item I'm with ya...hehe. I have 19,600 on mine in 19 months and I split time betweeen it and the Max.

I got mine back in July, and I'm sitting at 6,820 miles. I'm surprised that I put over 6k on it because it doesn't seem like I drive it that much other than to turn corners, trips to Houston or Louisiana are out of the question. I need to get the 944 going again and ride it until the wheels come off.

I bought my Z this past October and I just hit 8000 miles. I'm doing a lot of driving.

onzedge · 02-12-2011, 11:46 PM

I have had mine 10 months, 4 days and have 14,235 miles. I gave up worrying about miles and just drive. F*** it, it is the best of my vehicles and I just have to drive it.
