We only drive it around 100 miles per month. I have always used synthetic oil and changed at least every six months. Can I wait longer than six months? It seems a waste to change every 600 miles.

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros. Com.

In my shop, we provide the following recommendations. Chance oil ever 5,000 miles or one year (whichever comes first). I agree with your concerns. To me, it does sound wasteful.

Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
