My daily commute is 56mi one way, which is why I wanted to go the ctd route
I don't think 11000 miles on factory fill anyone would advise. That's a blend oil.Do you have a link to the ad? Is it being sold at a Chevy dealer? As for the records, an absence of a record doesn't mean it wasn't serviced, just that there's no record, which apparently does happen. My car was had an oil and filter change prior to going up for sale (per the service order that came with the car). Yet that service is not recorded on Carfax.
Still, while not optimal, 11,000 miles on a single oil change probably isn't a major deal. Member diesel, as I recall, had his oil sampled regularly by Blackstone, and in so doing, concluded that a 13,000 mile interval was about max safe range. Seems safe, I suppose. He's pushing 190k on his.
I'm not super-familiar with the CPO program, but I do know that the car manufacturers get a cut of the profit on CPOs (which are advertised on the GM CPO website in addition to the dealer's advertising). Thus, a dealership might be able to keep more of the profit by not participating, which might explain why your dealer has no CPO cars at all. But, that is me speculating.I agree beaurrr,
I started looking around their website and noticed they didn't have a single CPO car in their inventory. could it be possible they didn't go through the procedure to be allowed to certify cars as CPO?
I'm not sure on the requirements to be able to certify a vehicle as CPO but I imagine there is some sort of training and qualification process
