Alright simple question. How often do you change your motor oil?

Fuck disregard the first choice, or if a mod/admin want to do their job can someone please remove the first choice. Thankslubzubi

 

5-7k miles.

high mileage 5w-20 Penzoil with Mobil1 filters.

I try to hit it at 5k , last time was 7k though because of a last minute trip I made to TN.

Engine oils don't break down like they used too.. i know people with over 220k on their vehicles who do it every 5k, and they are clean as a bell.. no leaks or ticks.

 

Also please post as to why you choose to do so. I'm currently doing the 3k but I plan on moving it up to 5k.

 

Do you use synthetic or just normal oil?

 

Non-synthetic. Their "high mileage" formula is not synthetic. I used synthetic up until 100k. which was less than 2k miles ago, and have since switched. Penzoil states that this is perfectly fine to do.

 

^ I recently picked up a P71 myself and it just hit 100k. So I guess I'll start out with 5k as-well. Did an oil change today and should be good for a while.

 

Always use Mobil 1 full synthetic and HAMP oil filters, change the oil and filter every 5,000 miles or 8,000 kilometers.

 

2-3k for me valvoline vr1 Non-synthetic 20w-50 Every m3 owner i know personally runs this oil.
My motor has 220k so i like to change it often.

 

i use castrol gtx and k&n filters ( i get them cheap lol) or Honda filters depending on if i was at the dealer and picked a couple up before the due dates....3k miles or 3 months...usually 3 months since i dont drive much!

 

I go about 6-7k on mobil1 synthetic 10w30 with honda filters
