FAQ: Should I do an oil change before my first service?

[Removed]

This is not required but will do no harm. Seems to be a common practice over the Pond, as well.

An oil change is one of the cheapest most worthwhile mods you can do to your car - in fact oil changes can never be done TOO often.

 

Many people have changed oil at 4,500 miles before the first scheduled service at 9.000 miles.
