Synthetic Oil

How ofter do you guys change your oil when running Syntheric. I appreciate any info. Thanks

 

depends on how Ive been driving. 1,500 miles-5000 miles. Sometimes I go mudding and offroading very frequently, sometimes I rarely offroad.

 

i like to change at 4000 miles, but i usually end up letting it run to 5000

 

1 year or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first for me.

I'm using fully synthetic Amsoil.

 

I used to change mine every 3K but recently changed it to about 5K since it is synthetic.

 

^^^^^ seriously??!!

 

Yep, here's the link to what I use: http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/asl.aspx

I usually change around 15k just to be safe, but it's rated for 25k.

 

I do 5-6k with mobile 1

 

Every 5,000 miles, I use Royal Purple.

 

I always changed conventional oil in my Tacoma at about 5000 miles. Sometimes that would get pushed to nearly 6000 miles. Last oil change I went to Mobil 1 synthetic. I'm probably going to stick with the same oil change schedule.

 

Thanks for the quick respone guys>

 

6 months or 5000 miles like the owner's manual says. Once it's out of warranty, I'll just do it every 5000 miles.

 

10,000 miles Penzoil Platinum after warranty is up
till then every 3000 miles like the owners manual says

 

just did mine today.

usually about every 7500 to 10 000 KMS with full synthetic castrol

 

good stuff that

 

5,000 miles to keep the warranty happy. After the 5y/60k warranty is up, then I will try 8,000 or 9,000 miles and watch the oil analysis, and go up or down from there by what the oil analysis tells me.

 

According to Royal Purple's web page their oil does not start to break down until 12,000 miles. So I do a full change every 10,000. Every 5,000 I change the filter and top off with oil as recommended.
