Oil change question - Toyota Yaris Forums

GabL · 03-06-2006, 09:47 AM

I have read from some other forums that it is actually better to do the first service (oil change) around the first 2000-3000 kms. As during this time, all the dirt and chips from the engine comes off, and you probably don't want to drive with them in your engine until 8000 kms!

And I did have my first oil change at 2000 kms. I should have ask the technician to show me the oil from my car and see how "clean" it is, but I didn't.
