I've been overthinking this way too much lately (because that's what I do), as I've been trying to make time for my oil change but house repair projects have been getting in the way.
I forgot to do a sticker last time, so I'm guessing but I think it's around 6k miles now. Still at 19.6% oil life on the olm. Oil looks good still and is only down half a qt but what the olm can't take into account is how much dust is frequently coating my entire truck.
Recently I changed the transmission fluid and had to remove the airbox to do it...I had to pour water all over it to keep dust from getting on the inside.
Any thoughts on this topic? I usually change somewhere between 20-30% olm or 4-5k miles. Shorter in winter time with the cold temps. It gets a lot of idle time in winter and summer (heat and ac when doing paperwork in the truck). Currently 250k miles and 11,000 hours.
I do plan on getting a uoa kit eventually, to check for silicon but not sure where I'm going to get it and I won't have one in time for this next oil change. I will likely be doing it this weekend for sure.
