Seven Thousand Mile Intervals With MicroGardSelect

[RobbS]

I plan on having no issues with running Mobil 1 Extended Performance 5w30 for 7k miles on my MicroGard Select.
I commute 60 miles one way at 65 mph with no stop and go, just a straight up trip.
What your thoughts? Go further?
It's a 2008 Toyota Corolla with 180 k miles

Under those conditions you could easily go 10k actually

I agree whole hardely.

You’re thinking small. 10-20k with your driving conditions should be no problem. Better for the environment.

That's fine

Toyota says 10k with synthetic, and your driving conditions aren't a problem at all.

Thanks for the incouroutagment. I will most likely take the Mobil 1 Extended Performance towards 10k miles.
Lived it's whole life this way with Mobil 1 Extended Performance oil filters.
I just switched to Valvoline Restore and Protect for 6 intervals

no problem that filter cant do 10K expect it to resemble this filter https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/pentius-plxl4386-c-p.401560/

I wouldn’t worry about the filter. We’ve seen these cut open with over 10k miles still looking new.

I'd run 7k then send it in for a used oil analysis to make sure there aren't any issues.

The Microgard Select is rated to 10K miles.

Can't ?

Can't ?

Why can’t it? That engine with that filter and those driving conditions - 10k easy

I read your post 7 as you saying it can't do 10K, but see what you're saying now.

My verbiage was off beat.

 

[fantastic]

10,000 mile filter claim so why not? You have a very good Toyota to boot so it's certainly doable.
