About time somebody came out and said it. I've been running my Santy on 5,000 mile intervals using fully synthetic oil for 45,000 miles now with no ill effects. If anything, I think it runs better. When I worked for a local Audi dealer, I know the Q7 could go 10,000 miles between a change. Not bad... :clap:

Yes but does GM offer 10 Year/100,000 mile coverage on any of their products?

And with General Motors stock at a level last seen in the 1950's....

I see the Bumper to Bumper coverage is still just 3 Years/36,000 miles :whistling:

My last three cars have been going 10,000 miles between synthetic oil changes. It is about time for a large manufacturer like GM to confirm thier findings.
