Oil Change Dilemma

[paulofto]

. . . And have been for 6 years. Changing the oil just before storage ensures no unburnt fuel, water or other contaminants are present. I'd rather have clean oil in the engine than in a jug on the shelf waiting for spring.

Waste of car and oil... Just drive it all seasons

You've never been to Manitoba in January have you? And please, don't tell me Michigan has winter too. You ain't seen nothin' like a Canadian Prairie winter. Driving a sports car in 40 below temperatures and foot high ice ruts on the roads is not good for the car or your sanity.

Yup. I can attest to this. Still have scars on my lips from the zippers on my parka freezing to them as I walked to school as a child.

Rear wheel drive does not work well in snow, in Denver, Co. one of the most expensive states for car insurance; I am taking no chances. I am fortunate, I drive my Audi Quatrro during the winter and then some; we can get snow in Sep/Oct thur Apr/May.
