If you reset your oil thingy, they think you had your oil changed. Of course if you get caught... Again the point was, it's a way for them to make money off us, even if not necessary to do so. Case closed. Watching a cop show.
TX fluid is $45 . Super car oil is $17 .45$ a litre is not cheap!
No point in all of this hair splitting. Let’s agree that he drove a heck of a lot .As you said it was a long time ago and most people can’t remember what they had for lunch last Tuesday.
That is what your filter is for. I do agree with big brother. We do not know how much they know if we do or part or not. I was just saying that it is an unnecessary chore/waste of money/resources etc... Oil last way more than recommended. If you bought a extended warranty , do not take a chance on losing it, for an oil change. After your warranty is up, save money and forget about their timetable.There's quite a few news stories out there about people that were refused warranty work because they couldn't prove they had performed the required maintenance, so if you want to risk that to save a couple hundred bucks on an oil change, well, how lucky do you feel... as Dirty Harry said.
Resale value could be affected if you don't have service records that show the car was looked after properly.
Remember that email you get every month from GM on your car's status - mileage, oil change status, tire pressure, systems status, etc., and who knows what else they can see on their end - you're not paranoid, Big Brother (the General) really is watching you
Sure, modern engines run cleaner and oils are a lot better than days gone by, that's why oil change intervals are much longer nowadays, and you could get used oil analysis done to try to extend oil change intervals, but I doubt that would be cheaper than following the recommendations in the manual. You can't tell the amount of additive depletion or wear metals in the oil by looking at the dipstick. Your engine, your wallet, your choice
Law and Order.
Yeah rethinking it I am wrong about the mileage. It does not make sense. I know he drove a lot but like I said this was happening when I was a teenager so 50 years plus ago. I have been reminiscing about him lately so.
Use to be $8 before Mobil hired Batman as a marketing consultant, changed the jug and called it SUPERCAR......
First nobody said go 10 years without an oil change. GM would have to have reasonable proof that there was some misuse long before they'd deny warranty claims.There's quite a few news stories out there about people that were refused warranty work because they couldn't prove they had performed the required maintenance, so if you want to risk that to save a couple hundred bucks on an oil change, well, how lucky do you feel... as Dirty Harry said.
