well its that time of the year when I go for my first oil change. I made an appointment last week for this upcoming Thursday to get it changed. The mileage is at 13,890 and it says i'm -360 miles. Which means i should have gotten the oil change 360 miles ago.

BMW doesn't have a good system where the car sends the dealer a signal from the car right when the service light goes RED and then they end up giving you an appointment 2 weeks later

i just hope its okay to drive the car without its oil changed for an extra 500 miles or so.

yeaaaaaa...i drive alot...i have almost 14,000 miles and i got the car only in March i live too far south (in Ocean TWP, NJ) i have to drive up to Central Jersey everyday for everyday things (extra 30 miles each way <_< )

anyways....another question....when getting an oil change should i tell them to change the wiper blades too????????? and if so...then should it be free of charge which should be included in the service

saurabh, I would think the changing of the wiper blades would depend on whether they would pass a state inspection or not. It seems awfully early to me to change wiper blades, though. 'Course I'm not a fair judge since I ran my last blades 7-8 years and still passed inspection.
