Skipping 1,000 kms Change Oil

[dr. d]

I think it's the distance from his place to the dealer's that's got him thinking about skipping the pms.

i have misgivings about buying a brand new car, where the authorized dealer/service center is so far away.
i'll probably buy the one whose service center is much nearer.

i can't imagine.
i live in manila, and my dealer is in ilocos.

i feel that the first 1000 km is the time when the engine sheds off the relatively biggest amount of metal, as the various components seat in.
so yes, i believe in first 1K oil change.

I agree with you.

Especially for newly overhauled engines...

For our new cars (Mitsubishi and Toyota), 5,000kms namin binabalik sa casa.

Is this correct? 500 kms. away?

wouldn't you settle for a brand whose dealer and service center, are much nearer to you?

type ko po kasi ung ciaz and looking for opinions if ok lang na i skip ang first 1k change oil. ung g4 ko kasi dati pwede daw basta wag lampasan ang 2k.

Seems like this is the common misconception for others na tied up ka sa dealership na pinagkuhanan ng unit for PMS.

Pwedeng pwede naman yan I service sa dealership near you...

BTT.

1 k km pms is also mandatory for me kasi yan din ang chance na ma break in yung unit driving it like you stole it after passing 500 km mark

i understand. i also like the ciaz.
well, if you have fears skipping that 1K oil change, you can have the oil change done by a local mechanic. there's no secret to changing oil naman.
after my warranty ran out, i have mine done at the gas station.
just pray that you wouldn't need to collect on that warranty.
good luck.

btw.
you might ask the dealership, if they have authorized shop nearer you, that you can bring your car to.

No sir hindi ma void warranty nyan.

Sample if kiniha mo Suzuki Manila unit mo, pwede mo pa pms sa nearest Suzuki dealership sa iyo.

They will sign and stamp your service records naman to prove that you are adhering to the recommended pms schedule

un na nga ang problema sir. Im from Apayao then ang pinakamalapit is Baguio which 500+kms away. kung magpapachange oil ako sa mitsubishi (nearest dito) hindi kaya mavovoid?

[MR_BIG18]

haha hindi ako convinced sir. bago naman ung engine e hindi kagrabe wear and tear nyan

kahit ako hindi convinced, dont believe these guys, they just want you to spend more money, sa 10k kms kana pa change oil, conspiracy yan ng oil companies at car dealers so may unending revenue sila, while your at it, wag ka na din mag pa linis ng kotse, conspiracy din yan ng mga carwash at ni san pedro, pansin mo every 3 days umuulan? tini txt sya mga carwash companies si san pedro sa heaven para mag wiwi...

devil's advocate here.

suzuki: "how can we be sure that whoever did it, did it according to our stringent requirements?"

mitsu is a competitor. in my evilest of evil mind, it wouldn't be beyond evil imagination, for a competitor to intentionally sabotage the competing marquee...

in truth, i do not think mitsu will do evil to your car. just my wild imagination...
but if you are willing to let mitsu do it, might as well have the neighborhood gas station do it.
as i earlier lectured, oil change is de cajon. no secrets needed. i used to do it at home, myself, when i was younger. hassle lang yung old oil, na dinadala pa namin sa gas station.

kung sa mitsubishi na lang kayo bumili...
9 year old lancer design?
yung expander kaya... kelan pa darating dito?
adventure...get 'em while they last...
monstero!

Is it dangerous skipping the first 1,000 kms change oil of a car?

Well, I just skipped on mine.

Van is currently at 6300K++ in mileage.

It was due for 5k PMS supposedly ...... But, those long holidays prevented that.

[Egan101]

Unless the vehicle used factory oil for use only during the break-in period, I guess you'll be fine until the planned PMS schedule. I think some manufacturers still use factory oil that's only good during break-in period thus facilitating the need for a change oil after 1000 km.

1000k PM is given free by dealers because they don't do, change anything. There's still nothing to check anyways.
