first service

my dealer wants to change oil rotate tires and start a borg warner fuel and oil system is this a good idea? I have 2800 miles on my "11 GT

 

[CSKoz]

I would check the owners manual and stick with that schedule.

 

[Wicked One]

Oil change sure, but a tire rotation, are all the tires the same size? are they directional, Check this first before they charge you for a rotation and didn't do it.

As for the borg warner, I thought tha the '11's came with borg warner vct already. Please explain some more.

Thanks

its BG not borg warner sorry.....MY tires are all 18" Pirelli p zeros same size

 

[barrys]

Should I use BG fuel and oil systems additives? Dealer said first time its free. Help???? 2011 GT Vertible

BG is pretty good, it helps fight against the water collection of the ethanol in the gasoline. I use it when I store my vehicles for the winter. You can probably buy it cheaper and put it in yourself, rather than pay the dealer for it. It is just in little bottles.

Forget about the tires, you're about due for an oil change and about the BG thing, is it free or under warranty?

 

[barrys]

free first time then every 5000 miles for the bg warranty

 

[CSKoz]

Ah yes, the "First time is free" gag.

I would just use it when putting the car away. If you drive it all winter, no worries.
