Is it me, or is STUECK spelled wrong ? Should it not be STUCK, with two dots over the U ? And also, the part seems to be painted industrial green.Unusual. Just happened to notice these things.

Manual is much higher for mileage, but time is six months, they are assuming higher mileage for the six months as a maximum. Since I did not mileage out it came to six months or OLM, which ,conveniently, kicks out to 5% at 5 months and three weeks, no matter what it said before it set itself...

Yes, its not very many km. Victoria traffic is more stop than go. I really noticed the lower average speed after the bike lanes were installed everywhere, of course using car lanes to do it. You can figure what happened ! Yes, I will leave it alone for awhile.

Up until now, Merc Marquis was under warranty and had to get oil changed every six months. Fine. Warranty now up. Where I am at moment- 7 months in, 3000 km, 108 running hours, oil looks almost new on stick, ( ya I know about the colour thing.) Have Mobil 1, fl820 and 6oz of gm eos in wings...

I usually do an annual oil/filter change on the "vette". Only 2500 to 2800 km a year.Usually a fram TG or Ultra,depending on what has been on sale at canadian tire, along with some maxlife hi-m and mobil one mix. Just cheap insurance as i see it. You are already under the car anyway.
