Very nice car

With some great features, I wish mine had the auto dimming mirror. Her is what I would do , get a oil change like right now (regardless of when the oil was changed) install a magnetic drain plug and drive it like crazy for at least 1500 miles and check the drain plug for any debris larger than fine powder....if you find any you have something going on in your engine. Do this while under warranty

This, and cut open your oil filter you remove. Inspect the inside in the folds for anything.
