i really don't think i will trade this car as i got Navi. and it's wonderfuL!! =)
I ignore it because it doesn't actually measure the oil, but that's just me, I know some members think it is great and go by that alone. It's really up to you, but I just see it as a marketing ploy and way to remind people who really don't care much about their car (or maybe just don't know any better). The only real way to know is to get the oil analized at a lab, that costs about $30 each time, I will be doing that in a few months.
