Thank you all... I usually do an oil change between 3K to 4K. There are times I let it pass close to 5k because I didn't have the time or bad weather. Then I ask myself why not let it go to 7K/8K... I'd think 6K is a good turning point... Thanks again... On Thu, May 16, 2024 at 3:24 AM ddbjorkman@verizon.net < ddbjorkman@verizon.net> wrote: > NO.
