Does anyone with an FSS MB go without an oil change untill the FSS tells them to get one?

I dont, r u crazy!! lol
I do an oil change every 5000km, but there r customers that come into work that only do them when the FSS tells them. I bet ur ok to do it only when FSS says.. I just prefer every 5000km.

No. I take my car in every 15,000km interval! For me, I'm looking to maintain a good service record. Can mean some BIG $ when I trade or sell my car ;)

My parents cars have FSS and they both follow it. If something was to go wrong it wouldn't be our fault since we're following the car's programming.

well you probably have employee discounts right?

..which branch did you say you're at?

back to the question, i drive the entire 15,000kms, sometimes FSS even gets bumped up to nearly 16,000kms (for the 15k ~31k interval).. but haven't been able to replicate that since.. as I've discovered the wonders of TouchShift :D :) :D

well thats correct sir!! I do get discounts on oil and all parts!!
I'm at the downtown location.

I do the major service at the 15,000 km interval, when the FSS says...I just do oil and filter changes every 5000km also.

But the next interval was a different story :o :P
