Oil temps rise pretty quick with higher RPMs. Probably all it is.

I know PPs have additional aero under the car, but I'm not aware of any brake ducting. Can you clarify what your are referring too?

I've always let my cars idle down on a cold start before driving. I cringe when I see people start their cars cold and just throw in gear and take off. 😬

I had a little pucker seeing those pictures until the jar one. I certainly dont see any oil in the jar. If there was any, it should float to the top in the over flow tank. Maybe just some bad lighting under the hood? Just for giggles, have you checked your oil?

This is good news. I don't understand why they can't just do the inspection and let the car go subject to a future fix. Surely most of these cars do not have water issues or we'd be hearing a lot more of it.

It's a set of two. Click the link.

Yes, it works for the S650. That's the one I have.

I had one of these on my S550. Install is pretty much the same. The 4 clips on the old housing are a bit of a bugger to get out. Just go slow and take note where they are. Overall it went smoothly but I do have 2 minor complaints with this one though - 1. The cord is ridiculously long. It's...

Then why did you say it's just a timer? No one has claimed it does.

My apologies. I read your post wrong.

That is not true. My OTA updates have not affected oil life percentage.

Ummm yes you do. Always change your oil once a year regardless of mileage. That's oil 101. Edit: I thought you were saying you hadn't changed your oil in 2 years. My bad.

It is NOT just a timer. Did you read any of the previous posts?

It's doubtful the algorithm is programmed for a specific type of oil like synthetic blend or full synthetic. More than likely its a base average of oil viscosity the engineers came up with.

The algorithm is based on more than just time and mileage. It takes into account engine temperatures and RPMs. This has been demonstrated by anyone who has tracked their cars (including me). After a track day, the oil life is SIGNIFICANTLY lowered. Some OLMs have called for an oil change after...

This is an ongoing subject in many threads. And it's been pretty beat to death honestly. The short answer is yes, it is accurate under most conditions. It calculates oil life based on time, milage, and diving conditions such as engine temps and RPMs. That being said, It can't account for every...

It is right. It goes off of time not just milage. If you change your oil and park the car for a year, it will go to zero. Because you should always replace once a year regardless of milage.
