mpkayeuk Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 Hello folks. I'm a new member (my first post) but have been lurking for a couple of days and reading a lot!! I have an order in for an MY07 350Z and expecting delivery some time mid-September. Obviously I want to give the car the best chances in life and so I am after some advice. When is the first oil change service due? Is it 1000 miles or more like 10,000. Obviously I will be supplying the dealer with all oils and filters (and I won't be taking any crap from them on warranty issues) but if the first service comes at 10k miles I'd rather drop the oil and filter myself at 1,000 and 5,000 miles. I would also switch to a fully synthetic gearbox oil at 5,000 miles. Is this sensible? Quote
nixy Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 Hello and welcome! All that's far too technical for me so I'll leave it to the guys! Quote
Digsy Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 Welcome to the forum mate. Someone will be along with some technical answers shortly but IIRC there is no oil change in the service schedule, just the first P1 service at 9000 miles. Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 Hi and Like Digsy says, first service at 9000 miles/9months and includes an oil and filter change. I've not had any experience of changing the gearbox oil to fully sync and am not ware of any problems with the gearbox that would warrant the change. Quote
M13KYF Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 think it's best not to change the oil to early anyway Quote
Kennydies Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 The thing I regretted not doing when I picked up my car was having paintshield fitted. Now I have stone chips all over the front of the bumper... Quote
