Good advice, I would change the oil right away for sure. He said the owners manual recommends 7.5k-10k oil changes? I know some cars say that now, wasnt sure about the hybrids but he said (and showed receits) for oil changes every 5k with mobile 1 0w-20. The interior of the car was really clean, exterior in great shape, well taken care of car....just lived on a gravel road. Not a long drive on the gravel, more like an extended long gravel driveway.
What other fluids do you think should be changed? Car has 25k miles on it.
