Hey all, I just got my first oil change last friday at 2,9xx miles and now after driving it over the weekend and today it feels overall sluggish and slow for some reason. Before I had power on tap but now she seems unresponsive Do you guys think the dealer did something wrong? They plug my rear left tire because of a nail and I use reg stead of synthetic oil.

So whats the diagnostic? I have a 6mt

 

hmmm that's strange.. i dont think bad oil or anything during the process would make it slower. it can make it maybe burn oil or smell or something.
maybe you shouldnt have done it at a dealer, but you could take it to another dealer, or you could change the oil again yourself

 

weird... change the oil yourself with some Royal Purple or another good synthetic and see if that changes your situation...

 

maybe you just got used to the car already

 

Go to AutoZone if you have one in your area. Get a case of the German-made Castrol 0W/30. Must say "Made in Germany" on the bottle. Its a full PAO synthetic and is a proven performer. The dealer probably put in some bulk 10W/40 or something. VQ's like 0W/30 or 5W/30.

 

I just changed my oil from Mobil 1 to Red Line synthentic same weight. On
my way home from my shop my G felt like a slug. A few hours later I drove
it again and let it warm up.......hoping for the best. Within a mile I knew it
was going to be it's same rev crazy self.....evidently the new oil just needed
to be broken in........but hey, don't use anything but synthentic oil....leave
that other crap at the stealership!
