LILNC had its first 7500 mile service. That's when its "Change Oil" message appeared. The service would have been free had I not insisted on a fully synthetic oil. They use a blend, normally. I paid 48 bucks for a fully synthetic oil.
The service guy did not reset the oil computer. It is not as simple as our Marks. You have to push INFO, then RESET, then wait for the oil message and then hold down RESET as the oil life remaining number goes up to 100%.
The little car is running great. We're now getting consistently over 25MPG, driving about 80 miles a day, 65 to 70MPH, to and from Fort Worth. We're putting about 14.5 hours on the motor each week.
The wife still bangs her head when she get in sometimes. The seats are much higher than the Lincolns. If you don't fold yourself carefully before getting in, you will whack the top of the door jam with your head. Excedrin Headache 2010.
HOTLNC and CREMPF are on light weekend duty. They sit mostly in the garage.
