I was at our dealer today. They immediatly said I needed an oil change since the monitor was down to 15% I asked why. The service writer said since I was there I might as well get it changed.
Later the service manager informed me that I should get it changed at 20% left. When I pointed out that the manual says to change within 1000km (600 miles) after oil change warning comes up his reply was -"well I can show you lots of engines that got wrecked"
He didn't like the suggestion that they were simply ripping of consumers to pad their profits.
