What is your OCI? (oil change interval)

[micmac]

Follow OLM on mom's 2002 Buick Lesbre. 7700 miles on last change, UOA showed the 5w30 PP could have gone over 10k miles.

5000 on the Hyundai
April & October on the Nissan
(odometer on the fritz)

Between 5-6000 Miles for me...nice routine I'm in,changing once before winter and once after.

 

[jacky]

never over 3,000 regardless of oil type used

Camaro is now on the perpetual oil change regimen. It's burning more than a quart per 1000 miles, and just getting a filter change every 10k.

The Dodge I have just put into commercial service delivering travel trailers part-time, so I will be doing UOA's to determine changes. Probably 24-30k miles. Always with Fleetguard synthetic filters.

6000 Miles is the recomended OCI or 12 months.
I never do more than 3000 miles a year with it though so it just gets changed every 12-18 Months.

The Civic I use the OLM most of the time at 10-15%. The Versa will probably get 6 month changes at approximately 6000 miles. The Ram gets yearly oil changes that may have 4k tops. Tractor gets yearly along with the riding mower and the Viking.

My 99 Tahoe owner manual says 7,500 miles with Dino for non severe type driving and that was with Dino. Just saying

 

[Bighorn2500]

7000-8000 OCI with PP on Wife's Jeep Cherokee.
($2 a quart) from NAPA with rebate, 18 more quarts in the garage...

10,000-15,000 OCI with Mobil Delvac 1 ESP plus ZDDP for the Cummins Ram.

 

[WobblyElvis]

Twice a year OCI, about 8,000 miles of mixed driving per change. I use cheap dino and sometimes throw in a little cheap synthetic. UOA says this is fine and I sometimes skip a filter change. Been doing this for 25 years no problem.

 

[MuzzleFlash40]

The GDI Hyundai gets it every 5k on a syn-blend and seems to be the sweet spot with it per the UOA. The Ram used to be every 5k, but will probably get 2x a year (spring-fall) since I can't bring myself to do the OLM's 10k OCI's and it will only get probably 8k a year on it now.

 

[EA82]

96 Mustang Gt --- 2 Years (3K)
04 Ford E-150 --- 5K to 8k depending on oil.
11 Camry --- 1 year ( usually 4.5k to 6.5k).

[KitaCam]

I'm only driving 6k miles/yr these days, and Kitacam uses 1qt/2k miles, so I add a quart @ 2k and 4k miles and then change it @ 6k miles....easy-peasy.

 

[otis24]

Pickup truck, every 6 months, who h is 3k to 4k miles. Due to short tripping. Van, I have do 10k. Probably sticking with 8k here on out. Lots of short tripping also. Will see what the. Ext UOA SYS, though and adjust from there.
