Dealer did my first oil change today. I started the Z on a life-long diet of synthetic.

I probably should have created a thread asking a zillion questions about how to go about this before I proceeded though :stirthepot:

i would check oil level after your engine is cold...just to make sure they put the correct amount in there.
and check to make sure they didnt forget any of the screws on the shroud.
or left them loose...

there's no such thing as non DIY even after dealer does the service.

that said, its just easier for me to do the work on my own knowing that the service was done right the first time.

too many times i come home to see that the dealer overfilled the oil sometimes by almost a quart,
loose (or missing) screws, king kong torqued plugs, etc. :shakes head:

I assumed it was unpossible for a dealer to make such a mistake :D If my back were in good enough shape to slide under there to check the shroud, the dealer probably wouldn't have been the one changing the oil, so I'll have to trust them on that part [shudder] <SHUDDER>.
Thanks! :tiphat:

Thanks. Just an inconvenience but not likely to improve. It just makes it much easier to pay to have some things done that I otherwise would do myself. And, along with being an old fart, it makes things like popping in and out of my Z much tougher than it is for you young'uns :rolleyes:

Those ones are nice. Been meaning to get one for myself. Bought one last year for my pops so he can stop getting tickets. Worked so far.

Yeah man I hear ya. I have been using the Valentine 1 for as long as I can remember but after a lot of research I decided I wanted to sell it and go with this. I love it so far, highly recommended. The digital speed display which is worked off the GPS system is on point.

Removed my high end seat covers and gave them a good wash.

Satin black, but color matching the projector covers in gunmetal
