I just bought a '00 Aero with 35,000 miles, and I'd like to start using M1 0W40 - I've read a lot of great things about it on these pages (thanks Jason 0W40), and I live in Minnesota - so I thought it'd be a good idea. Anything I should keep in mind? Do you need to do another quick change soon so as to "flush out" any of the previous oil?
I knew the previous owner, and she had it serviced exclusively at the Saab dealer. However, I bought the car from the Mercedes dealer she traded it to, and it got an oil change before it went on the lot. So I'm sure the car just has regular dino oil in it right now.
P.S. Forgive the name - it was a pun I couldn't resist...
