I think I saw that royal purple claims every 6 months and/or 6000 miles but I try to change it before then
lol, i'm the same way. soon as i start to approach the 3000 mile mark i try to find a day when i can get it done coming up. actually bout 900 miles from next change.Ruffrider said:I do it every 3000 miles just because Im used to it. I can't drive my car over 3000miles on an oil changes... makes me feel bad for the car.

You haven't changed your oil in 26,500 miles? I can't imagine the sludge stuck in that engine. You better get that thing changed immediately and change it with synthetics ever 3000 for the next 3-4 oil changes or your going to have a screwed up engine.

01'TRUE BLUE GT said:No, it only has about 25,500 miles on it. I've looked inside one of the valve covers and it's clean as a whistle. FYI, you don't pour in 5 qts. of Slick 50 and replace it every 3-5k miles ... too expensive. I'm leaving it in til I see it start to get nasty, then I'll change it. Another 3k miles and I'll probably change the filter and top it off though ... just to be safe.
