Jammer,
maybe you should drop your cell phone in the next garbage can you see too?
Not sure what the rant about ONSTAR has to do with oil changes......
And sorry that the implication was that INFINITI had do a test, Infiniti did not. I had stated that ON THE INFINITI forum (which is actually NICO and not associated with Nissan/Infiniti) here is the post New Engine Coming...Proper break-in? Catch can?: M-Series Forum / Fuga Forum: Nissan Forums / Infiniti Forums - NICOclub

as ChrstphrR said "Why agonize so much over an oil change?"
so few of us get a new car. I was just trying to give some helpful advise.....

here is a post from a VW site with the oil analysis form a new car at 5k miles
