    Change your oil at 5,000 miles, it is a small price for the extra protection.

    In 2022,
    I am also sticking with the original 5000 mile oil change interval, I'm not convinced about the science or logic behind changing oil at 10000 mile intervals. Seems like additional wear and tear maybe occurring with running contaminated/worn out oil.

    I'm sticking to 5000 miles (well 8000 kms, same thing) OR 6 months, whichever comes first. And you guessed it...
