Okay, I know the first recommended service and oil change is at 5K miles, and that it's compliments of Scion. But am I crazy to want to change the oil right after the 1K mile break-in?

 

No. Many people do that.

 

Would there be a benefit to get it that soon over waiting for 5k?

 

actually now days they are putting special oil in new cars ment for the break in period and your suppose to go all the way the first 5,000 and i actually did a test on my 06 xB and the oil in the car looked exactly the same at taking it out at 3,000 and at 5,000

 

depends on your personal habits me since it is my only car and I drive it at least 50+ miles a day I get the oil changed every 2500 miles don't care if I am waisting oil I hope to get this car over 400,000 miles......hopefully

 

When in doubt, change the oil, I guess. Gasoline is still the cheapest thing we put in our cars.

hXcdi3hard's comments make sense- I'll see what the service center says and report back- our xD is nearing the end of its break-in.
