X51 break-in service?

Is there an oil service after break-in for the X51? Or more specifically, does any change the oil after 2000 miles?

Thanks!

MartinJF is infamous around these parts
I changed my oil and filter after the break in of 2,000 miles.

Neither the owners manual, nor the factory specifically recommend changing the oil after the first 2,000 miles. However, many arguably overly cautious owners (like myself) do just that.

I look at it as cheap insurance and I intend to change the oil at the 5,000 mile mark and every 5,000 miles thereafter. But that's just me.
