How often do you change your oil and what kind do you use?

Every 5000 miles. Mobil 1 full synthetic and Mobil 1 oil filter. M-108 I think it is.

3750 miles, use at least a part synthetic blend in my educated opinion

I personally use AMSOIL XL 5W-30. I change every 6 months / 7,500 miles with the WIX filter. If you are into the extended drain intervals, AMSOIL also offers 100% synthetic oils that are GUARANTEED up to 30,000 miles / 1 year between oil changes. I also use the EaA drop-in DRY air filter which is rated at 100,000 miles before needing to be replaced. If you're interested, I can get you the oil and filters.

Josh, just curious, why would you use a fully synthetic oil if you're changing out every 3,000 miles ?

i have just changed at 3000 with all of my cars. and i have a really bad procrastination problem, and if i wait to change every 5000 then i might not get it done till 6000. i'm just scared of doing it too late.

rather be safe than sorry

I currently use Royal Purple with WIX filters. I change the oil every 7000 miles and the filter every 3500 miles (add a quart).

What kind of pricing can you give on the AMSOIL full synthetic 5W-30?
