My car is booked for the 23rd of sept for the first servicing and yesterday I checked the oil and its black and the car done 14,445 miles should I carry on driving with the same oil or is it best to change it even tho my first service is book for next month plz?
According to Hyundai the warranty is still the same and the The booklet says the car needs servicing 2 years or 20,000 miles and none of those is reach yet so can't see why it may not have warranty on the car and I bought it from dealer about 2 weeks ago

If that is the case, or else you have it from Hyundai (preferably in writing) that the warranty is still valid, it wouldn't matter what previous services (required or not) were, or were not, done.Though I am slightly surprised, being that is is a used 'new-car' (e.g. low years and mileage), that they didn't give it a quick pre-delivery service... inc. changing the oil - being that would be one of the things the owner is recommended to check frequently. I am not saying they have to (or anything like that) - just little things to make the car seem even better/impress the buyer... so they help generate return custom (and/or return to the dealer for servicing).
Yes the 1 service is optional and the 20,000 or 24 month is the main one but Im going to ask them if I buy the recommended oil and filter if I can do my own optional one if that would have any effects on the warranty.
