You should be changing oil at least once every 6 months at a minimum regardless of the number of miles. If you drive the car more than 8K miles a year then you probably need to be changing the oil even more frequently than that.

How can I say this.......good intentions run amok with poor results. Social engineering. Changing the way the masses think and act. They want you to be dependent on the state for everything. Big Gov't. Hmmmmmm socialism to me.  California should change it's name to the Socialist State of California.

I would not be surprised if it starts knocking in the future. No doubt it is going to burn oil. I will put money on that. Mobil 1 is not that great. Last edited by Spooler; 10-12-2018 at 10:01 PM. |
