And that "1.5" bar is when it is idling in park, or in drive? When in park, mine it at 1.5 as well, but when running, it was much lower. I am hoping with the new oil/filter, it will read higher when in drive @ idle.

I don't know if it has been suggested yet, but go to a dealer and order yourself a copy of the owner's manual. This will answer alot of your questions about oil.
I agree with the notion of changing your oil again in 1,000 miles. If the oil was that bad, then fresh oil will clean it up.
