If you are getting your oil changed every 3,000 miles, this is likely too much. While old standards required that in order to maintain your vehicle properly you need to change the oil every 3,000 miles, this is no longer true.
Most cars can be driven 7,500 miles in between oil changes as recommended in the owner's manual.
So why does this myth persist?
For the most part, people are used to getting their old changed every 3,000 miles and stick with the same schedule despite advances in technology. In addition, people benefit financially when you get your oil changed more often than is required.
Bring your vehicle in today to Philpott Pre-Owned Super Center and we will let you know when it's time to get your next oil change. We can provide the oil change right at our service center and talk with you about other maintenance that you may need for your car.
