> [@airhead](#): > > When I worked at West Herr in '03 they took in a 2000 Focus on trade- 40K and it had the original oil! when i was at Schitts a chrysler came in w/ -i think- 37k on the original oil. Customer explained it as “but it doesnt need a tune up for 60k! say so in the owners manual!” chrysler DID do a warranty repair, but it wasnt a long block swap, the tech washed out the gunk and replaced only the most damaged parts. 3 pistons and a cam or something like that. the guy traded it in anyways, so we got warranty profit and new car sale profit, and the tech only worked on the car as an “on the clock hobby” because the customer was told flat out his car wasnt a priority, and he was just happy his stupidity wasnt gonna cost him out of pocket. ---

> [@AngryHero](#): > > seriously? who would wait that long on a bmw none the less On a BMW? Most BMWs are leased by wannabe retards with no idea what they are doing in the first place. I’d bet there are a higher percentage of BMWs running around on 40k mile oil change intervals than most other makes. ---

I don’t see a problem. It was still running, why even change the oil let alone clean and rebuild? What a waste of time. ---

Ran into something very similar when my PITA mother-inlaw drove up from Binghamton and her Cherokee started pissing oil all over my driveway.
