Im not positive, but I think your 1st scheduled oil change is at the 10k service.

my count down odo did not let me go to an oil change until 12k + miles
cause the dealer would not take it until it was within 500 miles or something.

not that it matters to me now. i do my own changes.

Hey here is a thread that I started. I co-worker just got a 350Z Cabrio and noticed this on one of his forums. I posted it in here just tonight. Then I saw this post.
