3,000 vs 5,000 vs 10,000 Miles: Best Oil Change Interval?

Are 7,500 or 10,000 mile oil changes safe, or should you still change oil every 3,000–5,000 miles? In this video, I explain the REAL oil change interval you should use for YOUR car – without wasting money or damaging your engine. In my last video, many of you questioned the 7,500–10,000 mile interval… and you were right to ask. Today I break down when that longer interval is actually safe, and when it’s too risky – especially if you plan to keep your car for a long time. What you’ll learn in this video: • When 7,500–10,000 mile oil changes are OK with full synthetic oil • When you MUST change oil earlier to protect high‑mileage or hard‑worked engines • How short trips, traffic, and extreme weather destroy oil faster than you think • Why time matters as much as miles (yearly engine oil change rule) • The simple “Smart Oil Change Rule” you can use on any car By the end, you’ll know: • The best oil change frequency for mostly highway driving • The best interval for mixed or severe city driving • How to balance saving money with long‑term engine health • Why “synthetic means forever” is a dangerous myth This video is for you if you’ve ever asked:• “how often to change oil with synthetic?” • “Is 10,000 miles too long for an oil change interval?” • “Do I really need to change oil every year?” 💬 Comment below: What interval are YOU using right now – 3,000, 5,000, 7,500, 10,000 – and is your driving mostly city, mixed, or highway?

Always follow the specific recommendations in your vehicle’s owner’s manual and service booklet.
