UPDATE: Post #18
So I have approx 2860 miles and am currently at 40% oil life (real 30-40% oil life according to the manual). 95% city driving. 5% highway driving (2 trips)
Went to the dealer to get my oil changed yesterday(friday) and they said they dont need to change it till after 4000 miles because of a "break in additive in the oil".
I was fine with this as long as I still get my free oil change at 4000 miles.
They were also looking at my driverside door. My window and the plastic panel immediately below it rattle at above 70mph, really annoying. Also when It is below 55 degrees Fahrenheit my auto up/down doesnt work. The window goes to the top and comes back down to halfway.
They said the factory didnt add enough foam padding in the panel so they added some more, good. And they sprayed some silicone on the rubber of the weather seal in hopes of alleviating the window going up then back down, good.
Everything was fine till I left the dealer: Had to return b/c my auto up down wasnt working at all, they messed with it for about 5 minutes and got it working again.(Note I didnt even leave the parking lot, so no 2nd gear).
Then after pulling out of the dealer and going to a stop light I got locked out of 2nd gear. I coasted up to the light and tried to get it in 2nd, wasnt happening. Could get it into every gear but 2nd. Eventually got it in 2nd right before the light changed and was able to drive normally home. (drove this morning and it wasnt a problem).
Then this morning at 5:15 my car alarm goes off.:chill: Dont know how it got set off, didnt see anybody running, couldnt find any signs of attempted forced entry. Attempted to set the alarm off this morning and couldnt do it.
Only other time the alarm has gone off is when I opened my trunk by putting my key in the trunk key hole and opening the trunk without unlocking the car.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I just cant help but associate the 2nd gear lockout, and alarm to something the dealer did, seeing as they had trouble turning my auto up/down switch back on.
Also are you really supposed to wait 4000 miles b/c of a "break in additive"?
Just realized I wrote a lot, thanks if you actually read it.
