heavy traffic, early oil change?
Hi, so recently purchased a 2016 E63S Wagon, which I plan to own for a long time and would like some advise on how to keep the engine healthy for years.
I drive in bumper to bumper traffic daily and wondering if it would be better to get more frequent oil change...any opinion on this? Car has about 6000 miles.
Also, the throttle response seems tad sluggish after days driving in traffic. Is there a way to reset the throttle adaptation?
Thanks!

2. Press the gas pedal to the floor and hold for five seconds.
3. Turn the key to the "off" position (don't remove the key), then release the gas pedal.
4. Wait at least two minutes for ECU to reset.

Does this have to be done with the key inserted and not the push "Start" button?
