What gives? I just bought this car a month ago. Straight from the dealer, about 240 miles on it when I took ownership. I noticed the oil life was at 30% when I took delivery (I wasn't sure if that meant 30% Used or 30% left....)
I read on here about how the oil sensors keep track of the oil life, no longer relying on just mileage...since the ICE doesn't run the same way as in a regular car.. so I figured... eh? The oil life must be where it's at when I picked up the car because of the many test drives it endured with people stomping the gas to see how it performed....and that probably contributed to the wierd oil life setting.
But now, at 1245 Miles, tonight the Maintenance light comes on and the oil life is at 15%? Huh? I drive very economically, (love the free battery charge I get coming to a paddle shift coast down a long hill
.
Hiccup? Or something more serious? Obviously I'll be calling the dealer tomorrow...
Thoughts?
Doogie
