Thought I'd respond back on this thread about oil consumption at my first oil change. STEVEWA pointed out that he had 9,500 miles on his FEH and had not used a drop in his while my FEH was on "min" when I check it before the oil change.

I now have about 12,000 miles on FEH and ready to change the oil again. I just checked it and it looks like it has not used a drop from the 6,100 change. I don't think the FEH used the oil during break-in but think I was shorted from the factory at this point.

At any case, I'm pleased now. Even better with the added miles, the FEH goes into EV mode easier and I can set the cruise at 35mph till the battery gives out. Thats about a three mph improvement from the beginning.

Only problems is the lock up in the ICE mode where I have to stop for about 30 seconds for the engine to shut down into EV mode. The other problem is the auto locks quit working a few months ago which needs to be repaired by the dealer. I tried to reset it but got no responce.
