After all the talk on the forum of 3,000 mile oil changes, fuel-oil contamination and expensive oil, this is my analysis after 3,000 miles on Mobil 1 5w-30 full synthetic. With how much I drive 3,000 miles is a pain, I would have to change my oil every month and a half. After being spoiled in my last car having 5-6,000 mile intervals, I decided to send in a sample to see how far I could push this car before I have to change the oil.
I drive this car hard. Full throttle onto the freeway, occasional use of sport mode, frequent spirited driving and sometimes 5-10 minute idle periods.*Most of my miles are highway and the car is completely stock.
They seem to think it looks good, but I don't know what any of this stuff means so feel free to chime in! I think I'll try 4,000 miles before my next oil change.
Also, feel free to post your own results!
