 I have a G2 200HO nearing

 I have a G2 200HO nearing 30hrs I bought new. Have had one power steering fault code come up that was cleared by dealer and hasnt returned - steering wasn't effected just the code came up. Getting more power, greater speed (extra 8 kn at full revs) and less fuel consumption than my old 200 Verado gave me so no complaints from some first hand experience. Oil usage is negligible and just something I have forgotten about.
