hi everyone -
I'm coming up on my first-year anniversary with 'Pimienta,' (Spanish for 'pepper,' the name I have given my Tux black 2014 Fiesta ST). I've put about 7K miles on her. Everything runs great. The manual says to change the oil every 10K miles or every year. Is oil changing something I could do myself fairly easily. This is something I have never done. Also, what other engine or other routine maintenance things should I be doing? Thank you very much and happy driving!
ps - thanks to this forum for showing me how to replace the blend door actuator motors! I replaced BOTH last weekend as they were clicking. I'm also going to do some paint touch-up on the roof where the previous owners did a so-so job on covering up some blemishes which I believe were thanks to a bike rack.
