oil change question
last weekend u put mobile 1 Synthetic 5w30 in my car with my oil change. now every time i start my car the change oil light comes on. i reset the light each time it comes on but on next start up it comes back on. ive been using the normal mobil1 5w30 before. any ideas?

Sounds like it's not being reset - which method did you use? If the key on trip/oil reset & hold didn't work try the key on, depress the gas pedal 3 times method.

Mobil 1 5W30 is not the greatest oil for the LS1; it is too thin for a 30wt, and the LS1 really prefers a thicker oil.
Run a search on 'german castrol' or Amsoil European forumla, or even Redline 5w30 (thicker 30wt than the M1 5w30)
If you live near an Autozone, chances are they carry Castrol Syntec 0W-30. Awesome oil, and best for this car.
