[QUOTE="AllFlash, post: 80821, member: 2168"] That is very strange as i received a Mobil 1 booklet with my package of documentation along with a paper speaking to the Mobil 1 oil change and times... For new Z51 or Z06 Corvette owners... 2014/2015 Z51 and Z06 Corvettes – Additional Required Maintenance.. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 11/24/2014 Ref. number: Service / Service Operations / G_0000205212 Subject: 2014/2015 Z51 and Z06 Corvettes – Additional Required Maintenance -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To: Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac Dealers 2014/2015 Z51 and Z06 Corvettes – Additional Required Maintenance The following message only applies to dry sump Corvettes that have not had their first oil change performed. Some 2014/2015 Z51 and Z06 Corvettes may experience a condition that leads to oil leaking out from the air cleaner assembly. This condition may be caused by running the engine continuously at a high engine speed with the first factory fill oil, resulting in silicone sealants in the engine’s gaskets degrading the oil’s anti-foaming agents. The oil foam has no effect on the engine’s durability. Effective Immediately: GM is changing the required maintenance schedule for all 2014/2015 Z51 and Z06 Corvettes equipped with dry sump systems. The new schedule will require the oil/filter be changed immediately after the break-in period, which occurs after the first 500 miles of operation. Once the break-in oil change is performed and the Oil Life Monitoring system is reset, customers should follow the Oil Life Monitoring system for all future oil change needs. The 2nd printing of the 2015 Owner Manuals is being updated with this change. These manuals will not be in the glove box material until January 2015. For vehicles produced before this change, and for all vehicles going forward, it is important to notify the customers that a change has been made, and they will need to have the vehicle’s oil changed after the break-in period. Copies of the new maintenance grid will be available on GMPROGRAMINFO.com, under Chevrolet, Resources. As you are aware, all 2014/2015 Corvettes come with Chevrolet Complete Care which covers 2 years/24,000 miles of select required maintenance.

Please make sure all dealership personnel are aware of this change.
