zOMG, that's soo easy. You just needs to be shown once. You can't do any damage unless you know the precauctions. :D

Stacey if you want to learn these things just ask
Any of the boys can show you at a cruise/meet how to do it
Pretty straight forward.

When I tried to do the 7500 k service,the lease company wouldn't pay. They said the services are at 15000 k intervals. So never got it done. the Mitsubishi service department weren't too fussed about whether I did it or not.

You should do the 7500 oil change. Preferably to a fully synthetic oil. Sounds better and performance is better. The stock oil is pretty ordinary in comparison. Obviously the 7500 is optional to Mitsubishi, so if you know someone who can change it for you, it'll only cost you the price of the oil.
