Default POLL: How many S4 miles did you rack before your first oil change?

Also-
did you replace the filter?
And what type of motor oil did you use?

Default At 8000, or before, depending on "look" of oil.

If it gets too dirty before 8000, I will change it then. Always change the filter, I'd change that without oil change before I changed oil without filter!

I plan to use Amsoil 0w30 synthetic.

Currently 3300 miles, and half way down the dip stick, no oil added, yet!

I just changed the oil this morning, at 2000 miles. I out in Mobil 1 and changed the filter. A little bit of a pain being that you have to " a big piece of plastic" before you can get to the oil filter and drain plug. I changed the oil early since I think the car is well broken in now that it has been on the track at 125 mph. Mike

Default Now that e are this subject manual calls out a mileage interval or time of 6 months. I'm projecting.

..a mileage of approx. 3000 miles at 6 months. Will the service include an oil change and if so what type? Engine won't be proprly broken in at that point.
