For me and my family - Besides electric costs, lack of chargers, infrastructure, fire hazard near house - EVs have too many unsolved issues not being talked about to run head long into as those adopting nations are finding out. There is NO money in recycling these toxic time bombs so till this...
People using their OLM to gauge when to change the oil past 5K are really misunderstanding the meter. It is there to tell you IF you need to change it sooner than 5K only - has nothing to do with extending mileage past the 5K recommended oil changes - per the manual ;)

What kind of 3m Tape ? There are choices... I replace all the add-ons - automatically with this style before install - i believe a lot of the china stuff is actual butyl tape with a red liner to look like 3m - worth a shot as mine has never failed (though I do not have the spoiler)...

Most would do better without -...
No doubt the manual is not the best I've ever seen - but like everything lately you get less for more - effort and product. Probably had some proprietary AI system spit it out to save some overhead. Just my thoughts and maybe not yours.
