3vil Posted August 2, 2016 Report Posted August 2, 2016 Next time you change oil you should send a sample out for lab testing. 15k is a long way, and a lab could provide insight into whether your current oil change schedule is fine or not.

I've heard about those places that do that, do you have any suggestions as to a particular one? I was skeptical but my car has an oil quality monitor (not sure how it functions, but I do know it's not mileage based like some are) and the oil is marketed for 15k, probably putting more blind faith into than I should.

Blackstone labs. The oil is marketed for up too 15k depending on driving conditions. They also tell you to still follow your manufacturers recommendations for oil changes while the vehicle is still under warranty because going 15k between oil changes will void your warranty. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

I will look them up and see about sending in some oil my car is a 2006 so it is well out of warranty. And my driving is about 35 miles one way to work and in that 35 miles I only had to stop once so it's relatively easy driving on my vehicle but I will send some in some time and see what they have to say "The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." -- (Thomas Jefferson)
OrzechNJ Posted August 2, 2016 Report Posted August 2, 2016 Walmart has $25 for 5 quarts of Mobil 1 deal often.. sometimes Loud is NOT pretty Sounds like its safe to go ahead and bend that ass over.
Quiet Posted August 2, 2016 Report Posted August 2, 2016 Miles are really the worst way to measure lube intervals. Most oil life indicators in cars use a measurement of engine load, run time, and actual revolution count to determine when to change oil. I'd settle for an hour meter, but only some 1 ton trucks have them as far as I know. All that being said, I used mobil 1 exclusively starting at 80k on my old Impala, and did changes between 12-15k for the next 100k. Engine was fine, no ticking lifters, no rough starting, nothing wrong to be found on the bottom end at all. Then I totaled it :/ Glad I only did 7 changes instead of 33 like some of you suggest. Edit: at average $40 for oil and a Bosch high cap filter, that's a little over a grand. 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud.
boom50cal Posted August 4, 2016 Report Posted August 4, 2016 i run 2-3 months per change. Usually around 4k miles. I idle a fuck load though. so 3500-4k is where I try to stay. Next friday I'm gonna get it changed again. Truck's lived 156k solely on motorcraft 5w20 and a motorcraft filter so it's gonna stay that way.
