Completely forgetting or a lack of knowledge on this stuff would be much more excusable than just not doing it for whatever reason, he deserves to buy a new engine.

Wait? We're supposed to change the oil at 60k? I thought it was only the blinker fluid?

They recommend changing the oil at 2500 miles for the cleaning cycle. Doesn't it worry anyone to have non-syn oil in there for that long???

Yea, that would be my worry too :drunken_smilie:
