Do you follow the 3 month/3k mile oil change?
Last time I had an oil change was July 06 and I was told to take my car over to midas so they can flush my oil and get an oil change. I was just wondering if 3 month or 3,000 miles is when you should change oils with these cars? Especially if they are older? I was thinking either 1 year/8,000 miles for an Oil change, but I guess i was wrong??

jesus christ. wtf
def. every 3k miles or sooner if ive got nothing else to do or close to it anyway and im near the shop |
:yikes: 1 year/8,000 miles is way over due.
Like RaynArt said, definitely 3,000 miles. Usually for me thats before 3 months, using the car as a daily driver, over 300 miles a week. What kind of oil do you guys use? I'm using Mobile 1 Synthetic. |
3K/3months for me, too.
+1 for Mobile 1.:thumbup: |
wtf. i am really sorry for you car. bring it by to my house and bring some oil ill do it for free .
|
I try to keep to 3k miles as best I can. Don't really care time-wise, as I've usually driven 3k in 3 months.
Mobil 1 Synthetic 5-30 ftw.:woohoo: |
I don't daily my SC so 3 mths comes quicker than 3K. Mobil 1 Synthetic FTW.
|
i thought the point of synthetic was to extend the 3k miles? to atleast 5?
|
Pennzoil full syn here, every 5000kms (about 3 months).
|
I change it every 10000 km or 1 year ... :-)
|
Why would you change it every 3K when Lexus specifies 5k or 7.5K? Waste of money, IMO.
