So is the verdict to not change if you have a 07? I only have 700 miles on my car though.. man it would suck so much to have a brand new car grinding gears, I feel for all of you that are going through this crap.
For peace of mind, change it. If you do the job yourself, it will only cost you $20 max and you'll know it was done right. I'd suggest changing to a synthetic gear lube... Amsoil or Redline seems to work well in these cars. I changed mine to Redline MTL in my 07 sedan.
