First oil change on my 2024 E-Ray — what weight are you running?
Just hit 5,000 miles on my 2024 E-Ray 3LZ in Hypersonic Gray and it's time for the first oil change. The dealer quoted me $180 which seems steep for an oil change, even on a mid-engine car. I'm planning to do it myself — I've watched a few YouTube tutorials and it doesn't look too bad with a lift. The owner's manual calls for Dexos-approved 5W-30 but I've seen some guys running 0W-40 for track use. For those of you doing your own maintenance on the C8, what oil and filter combo are you using? Also, any tips on the dry-sump system? I heard you need to drain from multiple locations. The E-Ray has been absolutely incredible by the way — the hybrid AWD system is a game changer in the rain and the electric front motor gives it launch capability that's just unreal.
