CBS Conditional Based Service!!

InTheDarkster · 11-18-2012, 04:25 AM

So my car flagged me to send to service at 6000 KM although it displayed that service is at 12000km,

took it to service center and they told me that oil sensors measure quality of oil and the car computer can shift service intervals on its own.

They asked me if my driving style is aggressive so service got earlier because of this!!!

So aggressive drivers out there :-) does this happen to you?
Any validation or confirmation for this CBS?

Another annoying thing, computer displays that "Engine Oil Measurement is Inactive" they said it is a known issue and they can upgrade the software next week to get rid of it.
Did anyone get this error?
Cheers,
Sam

Aggressive for short distances or long distances? Distance AND style matter.

Aggressive in general.. but mostly long distances..

Mine has autocorrected several times. Im on pace to be scheduled for service at 9000miles lol. I knew this 15,000mile oil change bs was based on granny driving. LOL.

Drive it hard on day to day basis, including quite a bit of dsc off slidey stuff. But mine never changed the service interval, stayed at 15,000 the whole time. I must say I'm impressed that despite the harsh driving, during the first 15k it didn't burn any oil
