I did my first change at 3k. I wont listen to the computer...I'll do the remaining changes between 7k & 7,300 mile intervals. I also won't do the Jeep Wave changes...at the rate I'm going, I only put 4,000 miles a year on my Gladiator. It's coming up 10 months old and I'm only at 3,800 miles. No sense changing out perfectly good oil. Plus I enjoy doing it myself.

My Gladiator will text me if it needs something. The other day I aired down and I got an alert text telling me to take it to the dealer for tire inflation service.

Who comes up with this crap? LOL amazing my old CJ-5 survived without a cape crusader as co-pilot.

Hello. I have a 2022 C8 with 506 miles. It's 10 months old and I am getting a message that the oil has only 15% life left. Do I need an oil change. Car has been gently used and just broken in. Apartments for rent in Beirut

Are you sure you’re on the right forum??
If you’re serious then I would say yes.
