Welcome package? Does that get mailed? I didn't get any package. Been about a month now.

Thanks! Did you do the first one at 3k? And then at 3k intervals?

You should receive it by mail. You may find the 1st free oil change coupons at www.mitsubishicars.com owner section as well.

I'll take advantage of that free oil change but I do not remember receiving any coupons? Anyway, the way my X is set up right now (with "illegal parts"), will the warranty get voided just for an oil change? I haven't taken it to dealer yet that's why.

i do my changes between 3-5k miles dependent upon what the driving was for the time period. As others said, probably good to do the first one sooner during the break-in.

Cheers.

Nice. Thank you.

I guess I am just going to stick to the suggested intervals. Mine is showing 3k, manual says 3500.
