Oil Longevity Question
So my lease is up in November. My service is 3000 miles past due, but I dont see the need in spending money on service if Im turning it in soon. The oil should be good for another few months right??? I know Im probably not getting optimal mileage and performance, but I just need to know if it will run!

You'll be okay. But post your VIN here so nobody else ends up buying it after you turn it in.

You'll be fine...... there was a thread not too long ago about somebody purchasing a car from carmax and then found out that the older lady that owned it never changed the oil for 35k miles.... the car was a mess
