The service was great as usual, but did have a surprise. Since bringing my present car for service, have always did so at around 3,000 miles and the sticker on my windshield indicated that was proper.
The last two times I have noticed the sticker indicates I only need to bring it in every 5,000 miles. Checked with Brian and it seems since my car uses synthetic oil this is not the proper mileage.
This just caught me by surprise since I had always been told previously that 3,000 miles was the indicator for an oil change.

Thanks Gordon for your review we appreciate it. It took me a while but I figured out the sticker difference, your's is the only vehicle that we use standard Quaker State 5w30. Our standing order is to have 2 cases in stock. what happend was we got synthetic oil instead of standard so when the tech seen it was synthetic the sticker was changed to 5k instead of 3k so your next oil change will go back to 3k because our shipment has been corrected and now we are getting the standard oil as we are supposed to. Sorry for the confusion.
