I bought my very first car ever in March of 2025, I’m a happy owner of a Chevy Trax I love this car. It’s very roomy and comfortable and love the smooth ride and sporty look.

Thanks for having me. I have had a few issues with my Apple car play, when I have my cord into the port my Apple car play acts up. Also my radio gets stuck and my screen gets distorted and freezes. Also my a/c will sometimes be cold then suddenly not cold then kicks back in cold again. I only have 5100 miles on my Trax. I go for my first oil change soon I thought I’d bring it up to the dealership when I take it in what do you think?

They told me to go by the Chevy app and it says I have 2500 more miles to go before oil change. That’s scary so you suggest I get an oil change now even though I am at like 25% oil on the app my pass cars. I’ve always done my oil change early and everyone’s always told me. I’m coming too early that I that’s scary so you suggest I get an oil change now even though I am at like 25% oil on the app my pass cars. I’ve always done my oil change early and everyone’s always told me. I’m coming too early that I need to wait till my car tells me I need an oil change so confusing thank you for all your advice. I’ll make my appointment.

Carplay is known for it's issues, it's not just a Trax one. Make sure your phone and all apps are up to date, turn off VPN on your phone if you have one and make sure you are using a quality cable, not a Five below special, etc. For more tips and info that can possibly help, you can check this thread out. Also, take a gander at your manual as it will answer 99% of questions you have on your car. As for oil changes, as you find info throughout this forum, 5,000 miles is max mileage recommended for an oil change so I'd suggest to get it done asap. Usually most like to do it 3-4k miles due to it being a GDI engine with a Turbo and having a wet belt exposed to the oil.
That’s scary because they told me to go by the Chevrolet app which shows I don’t need an oil change until like 7500 miles. They said you don’t need to come in at 5000 miles so I go by my app, which still shows I have like 25% oil life left With my old cars in the past I’ve always taken them early for the change and been told to wait till I’m like 20% low then come in. I’ll go and schedule an appointment. Thank you for your advice. I appreciate it.
