I JUST GOT S2k last DEC. And My s2k has 3570 miles.

Is it too late for changing oil? Or is it just right time?

I had 04 4runner, I change oil every 5000.

Should i change it every 3000 miles? thanks

 

You are supposed to change the oil according to the oil-life-counter which counts the intervals at 5,000 miles; so the first oil change should be done at 5,000.

 

There are mixed opinions on this. Do a search under the Under the Hood section. Some say follow the oil reminder because of the oil break in additive. Others have changed around 3000 miles.

I known some car nuts (not s2000 owners) that do oil change at 500, 1000, 3000 miles on a brand new cars.

For me, I changed mine at about 3000 miles on brand new '06.

BTW, don't put synethic oil until after 10,000 miles

 

do what the owners manual tells you to.

 

What does the oil life counter say?

 

just change the oil, u aint gonna hurt anything.

 

changed mine at 3800 miles. oil minder was at 30%. i used castrol gtx(10w30). it is okay to leave the oil in there til the minder says 0-10%, but there are so many different opinions on this. like stated above, do not use full synthetic til or after 10k miles. synthetic will disrupt the proper break in.

 

 

 

Agreed.
