under hot sun not big issue.
due to our camtakpro high dispersed temperature, cooking the cvt oil when engine running is much hotter than under the sun alone.
but its up to you. I personally set 40k only.
U don need follow if dont like it.
Though I say change later "MIGHT" affect the service life of the cvt, but I do not have proof to my theory.
Its only my theory.
BUT
Like i said before, I rather pay 425 earlier than take the risk CVT (cost = 12,740) kaput earlier.
it works out only 1cent/km nia.
affordable to me.
my SA also advised to change at 40k interval (my car actual mileage 35k), but at that time i did major svc, so skip to next svc.. however cost wise i choose to do it at 50k which is another 10k than suggested for heavy use.
i'm also eager to know will the cvt oil change solve some droning sound during idle and rpm below 1.5k
i jz can't remember how it sounds earlier when i got the car.. probably lower than current level noise
btw, yesterday i almost rear ended a car, i already fully pressed the brake pedal but still not stop because i think i'm almost 100kmh and coming to a traffic light, braking point less than 5-8m cant remember, mybe 3-4 car length
