Usually 5K OCI's.

On the Corolla's, will do 7,500 oci's with Schaeffer's 7000.

For both our Hondas

7K, 7K and 6K miles, I keep the oil filter on for the entire 20K miles.

i run my 7.3 litre ford powerstroke 6 months 350 hours or 10,000 miles with delvac 1 or m1 tdt 5w-40 or 6, 200, 5,000 on dino 15w-40, 10w-30

my gassers i run 5,000 - 7,500 on dino and 10,000 - 15,000 on syn

5K on my truck and minivan.
I change the oil in my wifes Maxima on the first day of every odd numbered month. I never drive her car and can't keep up with her mileage. I estimate she drives a minumum of 2000 miles a month.

I use Penzoil in all three vehicles.

Currently I run 10,000KM (6K Miles) on Amsoil with EAO filter and it returns superb numbers on the UOA. I'm about to double that to 20K KM (12K Miles) because I have lots of room according to the TBN, TAN, Additives and wear metals.

This will make for really great synthetic protection and help bring the cost down to that of a more frequent dino change well helping the environment with less waste oil and filters.

Not to mention... I can also spend less time changing my oil and more time bragging about the OCI to my friends.

 

[tonycarguy]

I must be wasting oil because I change my daily driver @ 8000-9000mi with synthetic, and that's 75% freeway miles. Looks like many people are going over 10k

 

[deven]

I do 5000 mile interval because my commute to work is 2 miles and all city driving. Like Johnny said, 5k is easy to remember.

 

[ThirdeYe]

Between 3,000-5,000 miles depending on how much of it is highway driving and how long it takes me to put on those miles. Lately I've been doing a lot of driving, so my OCI's are at 5,000 miles right now.

 

[FZ1]

Spring and Fall about 4250-4500 miles on PP 5-20. No Uoa.

 

[live_to_hunt]

I bought my Silverado used last year with 81K on it I run Max Life and change it every 3 months. I usually go less than 2000 miles over the 3 months.

 

[dennisny]

Every 3months since I dont hit the 3k mark

You're changing your 6 month oil every 3 months?

 

[Malo83]

5,000 miles with Pennz Platinum and Wix oil filter on my 08 Malibu 3.6

 

[dennisny]

Hey everyone. First post!

The wife's explorer gets M1 0W30 with 5000 mile oci per the OLM. It has 85,000 miles on it. Its sitting in the garage right now waiting for a new alternator to arrive. It'll be its very first repair. I think the high iron from M1 had something to do with it.

My mazda 3 gets M1 0W20. I've always used the 7500 mile oci. It has 52,000 miles on it.
