oil change late
i need to make a 400 mile roadtrip one way, and odo's about 19,900 and im due for oil change at 20,000.
will it hurt if i push it 300 mile pass my usual 5k oil change? |
you should be good...but i do mine at 3000...check your levels
|
few hundred miles will not hurt your engine in anyway. I do mine oil change every 5k miles too.
|
It shouldn't, you'll be alright.
|
You'll be good. Short trips are harder on oil anyway.
|
No problem. I went 11,000 on my last one and the oil analysis showed that I could have gone further.
|
sounds good, thanks!
|
I'm going to synthetic and will take my oil change up to 10k miles..
That's what the 2010's recommended using synth. |
Synthetic oil CAN go up to 10k miles between changes, but it is NOT RECOMMENDED.

Like mcbrew said it will be fine to go just a little over. Both mcbrew and I have run over 10,000 miles on the oil and had analysis done on the oil that showed the oil still had life left and could have gone further. |

i guess you didn't see the analysis reports on here... search them out, read them, and come back and say that again. |
