What's your oil viscosity at???
40% @4849- first oil change, oil still light brown, didn't use any- very impressive. you do need a wrench to get the filter off first time.
Back at 100%, I may be noticing some mpg improvement, last 330 = 39.4 US

Based on the title of the thread, does the percentage reading of oil life correspond to the viscosity of the oil? Is the car measuring the oils ability to flow and it's "thickness"? Or doe it use mileage and factors such as rpm to determine when to change the oil? Just curious.
I normally never wait this long to get oil changed, but I was in a bind...my local dealer was booked a week out and I had to get it changed on vacation.
At just over 6000 miles, the oil was showing 10% and coming up every time I started the car. I'd have to hit the Trip Odometer button once to get it to go away.
I figure I'll probably change oil every 5000 miles. I used to change religiously every 3000 miles, but that is about 3 weeks at this point; there is no WAY I am going to change it that often.
