I do check my oil, just not regularly, if at all between changes. I've never had a reason to, until now.

Truck - I check it maybe every 6 months. Like I said, I don't change the oil that often.

Civic - check it when the alarm goes off about oil change interval (which is an approximation for my halfway point on 15K oil)

Bike - never check it, just change it annually.

Z - I checked it a couple weeks ago when someone said theirs was eating oil. Mine was OK. I've since changed the oil and I'll check it again at 3750 before I drop the oil out. If it's fine, I'll likely check it again at either the next oil change, or halfway point...depending on which way I go (3750 changes or 5000 changes)



Don't bother attacking facts (that the Z / VQ37VHR engine burns oil a LOT more than most other engines out there) attack the person's credibility...
