Well, I'm at 3200 miles on the FWD XR and about to tackle my first oil change.
Any reccomendations on what's the best oil to use for the first oil change?
I would take it to the dealer but I have trust issues since I suspect I've been burned in the past when I was told the oil was changed and it obviously was not.

Was it a Saturn dealer that burned you on an oil change? I always like to use Valvoline.

I stick to conventional oil and change every 3k. I know that you can longer between oil changes w/ synthetic but I just have a hard time going longer than 3k miles without changing the oil, and synthetic is a little expensive as well in my opinion.
