I always change the oil in my new cars soon after the break in period is reached. In the Crossfires case, this is 1,000 miles. The fact that my car sat unsold for over a year also played a role in my decision to change the oil. I always like to rid the engine of any contaminants/metal shavings that get generated during the break in period.

I did not reset the FSS counter when I changed the oil so that my second oil change will occur at the normal 7k-10k miles.
