Well, I have to say, that is encouraging. Mine (in the post above) 172k and a 1998 Buick.

I will check the oil when I fill up. Go figure, the dumb computer sensor will hit the check engine light (and not tell you what might the problem be and it turns out the gas cap is not on tight enough) but won't tell you if there is a engine oil leak!
