My daughter’s 2013 Corolla has 150,000 kilometres (93,000 miles) and has been rolling along on a diet of 0W20 synthetic oil (various brands). She has a long commute and drives approx 40,000 kms (24,800 miles) per year.
However, she really doesn’t know what oil change interval she has been following since she moved to another mechanic but lately she seems to be changing the oil quite frequently. I was just going to suggest that she tell her mechanic that she wants to ensure that he is using premium oil filter, synthetic oil, and a change interval of between 8000 - 10,000kms (5000- 6200mi). I figure she would be safe with that. Any thoughts?
