who's at the lowest percentage oil ?
cruising by with 60%... i should have changed the oil twice by now... going on the way i drive sometimes.
around 5k miles. maybe some of the GD guys may chime in when their 1st oil change was according to oil meter. |
change it when the light comes on.
|
I change mine at 15% (when light comes on). Made it to 10% once.
|
Same happened to me. Didn't change the oil till 10k + miles.
Ridiculous right? But I waited for the maintenance minder like I was told... |
Yeah, I just crossed 4k miles and my percentage is still 70%. The oil doesn't look bad right now so I am gonna keep going to at least 20 - 30% before the oil change.
|
My MM dictated changes come about 7K miles. I do alot of highway driving.
|
just changed mine in the garage tonight. i'm at 60% and 7100 miles. it was completely BLACK.

Interesting you say this. When I got my oil changed, the worker there said that I was pretty low on oil. I told him that I just followed my gadget thing... clearly not always the best idea? I admit, I drove like 10k miles in 2 months (road trip etc) - but the thing should know better! Reminds me of the FE gauge.. :rolleyes: |
change the oil when the light comes on, that doesnt mean dont check/fill if needed between oil changes

... clearly not always the best idea? my motto is: if it's black, change the shit. |
the people that make it to negative miles should get shot for abuse

doh!!. ... . |
60% at 4,7xx miles. I'm debating to change it at 5k miles or wait until it hits 15%. :confused:
|
I'm changing mine at 5K...it certainly won't hurt anything and the dealer can use the business.
|
I just hit 90% yesterday, because I finally rolled over 1000 miles. I want to change the oil but don't want to mess up the break in. (as if my ridiculous driving probably hasnt already shaved 2 years off the life of my engine.)
