3000 using conventional(if you can find it) 5000 miles on older engines with full synthetic(pre 2015) you can push to 7.5k on newer with synthetic only. If highway only, you can push to 10k but no more. We have a 2014 Camry with 450k miles because of 5-7.5k mile changes. Manufacturers are getting emission credits from extending the oil change intervals for using “less” oil and then it becomes our problem. It will last the warranty period but that’s about it on their recommendations
@@hancockak47 in the mechanical world there's a big debate about that........if there's less than 100,000 miles on the vehicle id change the filter if the vehicle has one ......and do a full fluid flush with Amsoil transmission fluid as well....... depending on how the vehicle is used every 40-50,000 miles after that........now here is the biggest debate.......if the fluid has never been changed and it looks and smells good and has over 100,000 miles on the fluid you could do a flush and be ok.......but if it smells burnt and is dark to black you could probably do a flush and be ok......but that could create other issues........
oil change is not based so much on mileage it has to do with oil temperature between bearings. There is no accurate way of measuring the temperature in the bearing. Change oil and oil filter every 4000 miles do not use oil called 7000-mile oil you don't want to keep dirty oil inside the oil pan. Newer engine with VVT use light weight oil but still need to change it at 4000 miles. When changing oil at 4000 under normal usage you can get by using Penzoil or another common brand you see at Walmart.
so you use a certain oil, than use their service to check it. Do you think they are going to say anything bad about their own oil. ? May I suggest sending a sample to AMSoil and another company at the next change. Than do a stare and compare on the 2 reports with the same oil test. Your welcome.
@@BR549_o7 the oil analysis kits come with the address to a third party lab not to Amsoil......they do that so as not to show partiality to their own product......hope that helps about why that takes place.....
@@fearlessfly100 ok, your missing something still. The 3rd oil company will not say anything bad about AMSoil either. Because they want AMSoil to keep pushing their oil analysis product. I still say to get another oil sample company that is not tied to any oil product (selling wise) That is how Govt. and businesses work. You scratch my back and I will scratch yours. Get two samples next time. Thank me later.
Pulled too many engines apart that either the oil was not changed or intervals were far too long. Nothing but, burnt and gummed up.
Yes.....going 15,000 between oil changes on conventional oil is not the best thing to do....

I drink motor oil,it is quite tasty.
Great video keep doing the testing. This is good information. Thanks for the video.

I would like to know your opinion on transmission drain and fill, thanks SH

We went from 3k oil changes from now guessing im doing 4k change

@@sakabatanuki9744 obviously you didn't watch the whole video......I'll stick with Amsoil and run 10,000 miles or longer on oil changes......
@@fearlessfly100 100000 is foolish sir. Why running your engine in dirty oil? are you that cheap?
@@sakabatanuki9744 again you didn't watch the whole video.......I never mentioned 100,000........
@@fearlessfly100 don't mess with my oil change.
I change it in April and October. I only drive 3000 miles a year. I'll bet a lot of people want to buy my car.
I'm guessing it's got an oil leak?
