Seriously on my 2004 the FSS light went on about every 12.5k miles, based on my driving. Why pollute and recycle perfectly good synth oil. The systems monitors the condition of the oil, it will tell you when to change it.

AMGLover,

Some of us are old school and have to change our oil more frequently. Think of it like washing the car, it's our way to spend more quality time with it. Besides it only takes about 10 minutes to change and reset the FSS. Personally I drive the car hard so I change my oil every 5,000 and just before it goes into storage.
