Default First 5K service and oil change...

Getting ready to take car in for its first oil change and nose diffuser install. The car is settling it seems and im actually getting about 370 miles to a tank when commuting going about 80 the whole time. And that's with sprintbooster in green mode. Car is getting smoother, even though it was always smooth. I love my car and can't wait to finally get the diffuser installed, that's been in the parts department for almost 3 months just waiting.

That's a lot of miles on the oil doing 80.
i hammer on mine a couple times a day; but mostly drive the speed limit & get 500 miles per tank...and i change my oil & filter every 2500mi.

I have the prepaid service and all the extended service and warranties. I was tempted to get it changed at Specialty Z in Chatsworth and get some stuff done but it's been prepaid and brand new.

I'm not going to endorse an oil manufacturer, because there are a lot of good ones out there & I know that just because the jug says full synthetic or 100% synthetic is very misleading.
Be cautious of what your dealership uses; most by bulk oil from whom ever they can get the best deal.
My 11' has 64k on it & only used Mobil one 5-30 & K&N or either napa platinum oil filter (long one, like on GTR's & Titan trucks) 2500 intervals & never a drop used or a rattle.
93 ethanol free only.
475-500mi every tank 26-28 mpg. Worst ever was 24.
0-105 13.1sec 0-158 29sec.
