[QUOTE="goblues38, post: 1436281, member: 29724"] welcome to the internet. lol car forums and oil questions start wars. The factory maintenance schedule calls for 10,000 mile oil changes. The % oil life indicator is based on that interval, plus some real time metrics to account for heat, and severe duty. At the bare minimum, you must at least follow that % life indicator. Most of us, tend to do the 1st oil change around 3,000 miles to get the break in oil out of the system. After that personally, I tend do do my oil changes when the % life indicator gets to about 25% life remaining. Putting me on a 7,000 mile interval roughly. I only use full synthetic mobil 1, and FOMOCO oil filters. I have been using Mobil 1 since 1992, and extended intervals (5k-8k) since 2000. around 800,000 miles and never any oil related issues doing this. Read this thread and the hundreds of others on the interwebs and find whats right for you. [/QUOTE]
