I do DIY on all my vehicles but I am taking advantage of the included (they are most definitely NOT FREE) oil changes because they represent $165 in parts not to mention your time. I get them done early and use them to flush most of the break-in contaminants. After the four dealer OCs, I'll start DIYing with a brand name syn and Wix oil filters. After my first DIY, I will run the OLM down to 0% and lab test the oil to see what the OLM leaves me. Then, I will know exactly what I've got in my engine and adjust accordingly.
