Every 2000 miles. 3000 miles only if you're feeling lucky. Are you feeling lucky, my friend?Is go 2.87K if you really to keep your vehicles for the long haul.
You are living in the '50s. Back in the day we had open crankcases allowing the engine to take in dirty air and pollute the oil. Today we don't have that type of crankcase ventilation. In those days we had carburetors so the fuel mixture was not always 'spot-on'. Carburetors allowed cylinder wash from over-rich periods of engine operation. Today we have fuel injection where the fuel /air mixture is spot on and oil dilution from cylinder wash no longer exists.I will continue NOT to believe the advertising bunk and change my vehicles at 3K.
The engineering of course.What's the difference between them?
2000 miles, forsooth! Are you nuts? With a turbo DI, I have to change my 20W60 every evening after my drive home or my engine will barf its crank!Every 2000 miles. 3000 miles only if you're feeling lucky. Are you feeling lucky, my friend?
RIP, I bet it was a nice car but too bad you are stretching those OCIs. I've just added an oil tank in mine with a constant circulation of new oil.2000 miles, forsooth! Are you nuts? With a turbo DI, I have to change my 20W60 every evening after my drive home or my engine will barf its crank!
Cheap insurance.Every 2000 miles. 3000 miles only if you're feeling lucky. Are you feeling lucky, my friend?
Wait, a constant circulation? Or are you injecting new oil that is then captured and disposed?RIP, I bet it was a nice car but too bad you are stretching those OCIs. I've just added an oil tank in mine with a constant circulation of new oil.
How they pollute the oil with blow by.What's the difference between them?
Going over 4k on a direct injected engine is definitely certain death. I made that mistake on my Porsche Cayenne with a VW VR6, doing the factory recommended 10k intervals with an A40 oil. When I sold it with 190k miles, it still didn’t burn any oil between changes, but I am sure will definitely die from these intervals by 500k miles.UOAs are your friend here… Some engines might be able to tolerate 10,000 mile plus oil changes (my Toyotas for example), some engines can’t handle over 4,000 (any GDI). The extended drain oils use better base stocks, generally have higher starting & lasting TBN… And generally state “change oil at manufacture’s suggested intervals”…![]()
Yes, all constant circulation of new oil and recovery of old. Like one of those fancy auto trans flush machines. I like the hydrocracking idea.Wait, a constant circulation? Or are you injecting new oil that is then captured and disposed?
Another possibility would be a distillation and hydrocracking setup in your trunk, essentially re-refining the oil as you drive.

Bah humbug.RIP, I bet it was a nice car but too bad you are stretching those OCIs. I've just added an oil tank in mine with a constant circulation of new oil.
I almost read the post you were responding to as being facetious ... hard to say with the interwebs.This is what I love to see.
You did 10k changes, drove 190k, did no harm to the engine, but since it’s not what you believed, you’re now ignoring the evidence ??????
I be confused
Great scott!!!!Bah humbug.
I put one of these in mine, but it's called a Home Fusion Generator - specifically the Mr. Fusion model. 1.21 jigowatts @88mph.

That would be because the intense sarcasm with which I wrote my post was filtered out. I am in the do as long of OCI that is safe club. I debated dropping to a shorter interval than 10k on my 2016 Cayenne S (twin turbo V6) but given it holds 9.5 quarts decided I would stick with Porsche’s 10k OCI.This is what I love to see.
