Maintenance & Upgrade Log
February 08, 2004
Did my first oil change on the car at 5,000KM (3,000 miles). I filled the crankcase with 5W30 Mobil 1 synthetic oil and changed the oil filter to a Fram Dura Guard. Everything went well with the oil change and the car now has 35,750 KM (22,165 Miles) on the odometer.
Overall Impressions
So far the car is getting much worst mileage than I expected. I must admit that most of this is city driving and the weather has become colder here in Montreal and this is definitely having an effect.
