Hey all!

Ok.. here's the story. The old man picked up a nice new Red 370z 6MT on Saturday morning. I don't own the 370z yet.. but once the old mans lease runs out on the car we have the option of buying it for the residual. That's where it becomes mine.

I've already been driving it as much as he is, and all i can say is Wow. So far this car is just great. Goes nicely, stops quickly and grips like there's no tommorrow. Love it!

So yes! Had it for just over 5 days and its already broken 1000km. Once it hit 1000km the little computer/fuel economy readout came up with "Oil" and "Filter" to be serviced. When we booked it in for the service they told us that the Oil isn't part of the 1000km service, but can they can do it if we want. Should i? I'm thinking if they car is saying we should do it... then we should?!

Cheers boys!

you just need to reset the oil and filter alert, which can be done by navigating the menu on the display left of the steering wheel, go into the maintenance section and set the value to when you want it to remind you to change your oil/filter. G'day mate!
