and isn't this your first oil change ever on the car? it could be the metal parts in the engine coming from the factory thats why you're supposed to have the first oil change pretty early because of ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the metal floating around in the engine
am i correct?
no, not quite. they generally tell you to run the oil till 15% and that usually is 5-8k for most. i did it before 3 because my car was feeling funny, the oil appeared super dark, and then i find these....
