NO.  If using dino oil, even the good ones, 5 to 6K is the max for oil change. Dave B.the Boston one On Wednesday, May 15, 2024 at 11:38:42 AM EDT, Dan N <dn92610@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi All...

For a 2.1 WBX... 30+ years ago recommended oil change interval was 3K to 4K miles. Since oil quality/composition evolved, is it safe to do oil changes at 8K to 10K miles? This is using Conventional Oil (not Synthetic).

Thank you..

dan
