How often does everyone change their oil?
According to our service manual it says we should change the oil atleast once a year. However, our services are 6,000 miles then 18,500 miles?
Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think we have a 12,000 mile service? If you are putting 8-12K miles on your car each year how often should you change your oil?
My service guy "recommended" having the oil changed for $350.00, every 3,000 miles if you drive the car hard? He said 6,000 miles would work if you are a normal driver?
I certainly do not want to over maintain my car, I just want to follow all the proper maintenance.
What is everyone else doing? Can these cars go 12,000 miles between oil changes?
Thanks. CM
