My OLM went off at about 11,200 kms this week suggesting to change the oil. This was on the factory fill, so its the first oil change. I'd say about 7,000 of those kms were highway kms, if no more. Anyone feel safe with this type of OCI on conventional 5w-20 ?. Call me old school but it sounds a bit long to me. In miles that is about 6500 miles or so.
I got the oil change done at one of those Quaker State lube shops, the car felt a lot smoother and quieter after the oil change. I thought they may have put in 5w-30 or something, but the invoice says 5w-20. I think I'll do a short OCI on this oil and then switch to Mobil1. The lube shop put one of those reminder stickers on the car , telling me to do the next oil change in 5000 kms (3000 miles) Any opinions would be helpful. thanks
