So I picked up an 09 RTX with 204 miles on it...it has 250 miles on it now, I'm thinking I should get rid of that old oil even though it's under 500 miles? Any thoughts on when to change it again? End of season?
Thanks

If its still the original oil in it when it was new, I would definitely change it.

I would fire it up and run it till it's up to operating temp and change it right away. That oil has been in there too long. Your engine will thank you.

Changed the oil, looks like the dealer changed it and didn't tell me...it had a K&N filter on it. Cheap insurance anyway.
