My GT only has 1900 miles on it and the computer is now telling me to "change oil soon" ????? Has anyone else had this happen with such low mileage?????

How long have you had it? It factors time as well.

11 months.... I was wondering about the time factor. Low miles since I take public transportation to work and weekends toy time is divided between my Stang and my Motorcycle seat time. I guess I should have the dealer reset it if that's all it is??

I mean, you can reset the oil life yourself, but you really should just change your oil. On low mileage cars, once a year is a safe interval.

Change the oil, 1 year is more than enough of a reason with a synthetic blend.

Just curious...if the car hadn't told you to change the oil, when were you planning to do it?
