Requirements vary by vehicle, so it is best to always change your oil as listed in your Owner’s Manual under "Scheduled Maintenance" or the Maintenance Schedule website. Carefully following your vehicle's maintenance schedule helps protect against major repair expenses resulting from neglect or inadequate maintenance, and may also help increase the value of your vehicle when you sell or trade it.
Many newer-model vehicles have an What is the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor System? that determines when you should change the engine oil based on how your vehicle is used. This means you do not have to remember to change the oil on a time or mile-based schedule. Your vehicle lets you know when an oil change is due by displaying a message on the information display. To determine if your vehicle has an Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor, refer to your vehicle's Owner’s Manual or the Maintenance Schedule website.
