Re: Engine oil

Hi,
First all you should need to do it put in 5w30, You can also put in Synthetic, but I do not waste the money. Just make sure you put in a good quality oil like Castrol, Quaker State, etc. What I am saying is don't put in the Advanced Auto or Auto Zone brand, even though it is probably OK, stick with the brand names.

Synthetic is suppose to be compatible with regular motor oil, so you can switch back and forth.

If you go only 6 miles a day I would change it every 6 months or so. If you drive 100 miles a day that is 3000 miles in 30 days. I would then change it at the 3000 - 4000 mile interval.
