Default Oil for the S
I was wondering about two things:
1) Does anyone actually follow the maintenance minder and change there oil when it tells them 20/15/10 % left, or do you do it on a set interval?
2) What kind of oil do you use. I believe Mobil 1 5w-30 synthetic is what most people use. Any recommendations?
