Question to the net-

So we all change our oil and filter regularly at 3K or so.

Has anyone had an experience where the motor goes boom, auto
is under warranty (reg or extended), and the mfg sez:
 
	You did not change oil or were negligent or whatever!
	Warranty voided!

Must we supply proof that the oil and filter was changed at such
and such an interval, like service station or dealer receipts?
 
What about those of us who by a couple of cases of oil/filters on
sale and change regularly- how do we _prove_ we changed regularly
without any receipts?

Has anyone had an experience in these matters?
