Oil change intervals

I agree. I have the maintenance plan and when I take it for service, the plan only covers every 10k for oil change. Which to me, is bullshi*. I have to pay the 60 bucks to have it switched out @ 5k but my truck runs better and it’s piece of mind knowing I have clean oil.

 

every 5k is the way!

 

last week they were $22. for a two pack. in store.

 

Same here every 5k

 

Just bought a 13 Taco 6 cyl w 98K miles - very stock. I plan to split the difference and change at 7,500 miles synthetic.

 

I seen the platinum (not Ultra) in 5qt at my local Walmart. Other than $3 price difference between the Ultra Platinum what other difference is there?

I wonder this about the different levels of oil Castrol sells to. Could it be mostly marketing as they all meet Toyota specs in the recommended viscosities.

 

The old 4.0 should have a 5K OCI.

 

It's all marketing. Some dude on BITGOG named Pablo sold me.
