Default RE: 91 EX usin water

You need an oil change since it's been well over 3 months, regardless of mileage accumulated.

Oil change won't help the coolant leak. Have a coolant system leak test performed, and if negative check for combustion gases in the coolant (a sign of leaking head gasket).

All engines take maintenance, whether new or old.

good luck
