First Oil Change on Hybrid 2025 Trailhunter i-Force Max at 1,010 Miles (Oil Report added)

[SouthCoast]

Just did my first change @ 5629 miles. Swapped in a Fumoto F133L oil drain plug for easier future changes. Oil was dark “reddish” amber. Replaced with Mobil 1 Full Synthetic Hybrid. Will post an oil report when available.

Spoke to my brother, an auto mechanic, about it. He indicated GM is having issues with 0w20 oil in the 6.2L. Their fix is to switch all recalled vehicles oil with 0w40. The L87 is a v8, so perhaps different situations, but apparently the thinner oil is not protective enough. It does make one wonder…

I did my first oil change yesterday at 1,575 miles. My ORP hybrid only took 5.5 quarts. I think 5.9 would have gone way over the fill line.
Maybe some of the old oil didn't drain.

FYI. My ORP iForce Max took 5.9 quarts at my 3333 miles first oil change. Brought it up to the second mark.
