08 @ 24k miles and no oil change yet

Hey everyone. I'm getting close to 24k miles and I've been topping off my oil but have not had a full oil change (filter & oil) done yet. The last few times I've been in to get my oil topped off, I've asked if an oil change was due yet and the service guy said nope. Normal or should I get the full service done? Onboard computer says 14000 for the next oil change.

yeah something must have been reset or your onboard is messed up. definitely needed to have an oil change. the 1200 and normal 15k.

you should complain and make a big issue. it could have ruined your engine!

Is it possible you got the service done and don't even know??? Ask your SA. At 14K miles to next oil change, it was just reset man. Doubt there's anything wrong with your DME.

Oh, and if your oil hasn't been changed, forget about selling your car here . Keep us posted.
