if youre like me and ownership of the vehicle is in its first year, you are NOT given that oil change...you would have to wait 12 months and a day before you were able to take advantage of that spiff. the garage also advised me that oil changes are good around 15ooo in areas where theres a lot of humidity (which is almost EVERYWHERE nowadays lol) he didnt recommend that you wait til the car prompts you for that first change, but he didnt stress the importance of getting the oil outta there before the prompt either.
Oil change at my dealership is $116 bucks, not too shabby...i had heard 2oo plus bucks.
* how bad is it to put a car away for a few months WITHOUT changing the oil?
P.s, hope this helps.
