There has long been a standard timeline for most vehicle owners to change out the oil in their vehicle's engine. For many years, many oil and lube centers as well as some mechanics, have recommended that vehicle owners change the oil out every 3,000 miles to improve the life of their vehicles.
At one point in time, this was an accurate statement but vehicles that have been made within the last twenty years are coming with a completely different recommendation. Many modern manufacturers are suggesting oil changes at the 7,500-mileage marker and some even more. It is always wise to consult your owner's manual to have the best time-frame for oil changes as well as what type of oil to use. It may be a bit scary to go that long between changes at first, so it is a good idea to check your oil every month to make sure it is healthy.
