Just wanted to know since my car has been sitting for 4 months for winter without a heater in the garage if I should pay for a oil change anyway since its been sitting there for so long. Plus its reached -30's to plus temps in this crazy oil province. I know its synthetic oil by reading other threads but just wanted to know other ppl's thoughts if I should just drive it till the next recommended change or just get it changed now?
personally i would have gotten the oil change after the car got out of storage!
this way its fresh oil and any residue from the engine would be all drained and you would have new oil!

but thats what im doing, getting an oil change after i take the car outta storage...which is next week
