how many miles between oil changes? Currently I change every 3000 miles on conventional oil. I drive 10,000miles/year; 50% city, 50% highway. My vehicle has 30,000 miles on it and is three years old (4 ltr dual overhead cam v-6 mounted in a Nissan...

I use this product in my 2008 MINI. The dealer puts it in, and says "see you in one year or 14,000 miles, whichever comes first. So, don't waste your money changing this premium quality top-shelf synthetic oil every three months, especially if your engine is only three years old and not burning any oil (which I would imagine is the case, since you've been using this oil all along). If your driving style is characterized as "extreme duty" (short trips, dusty conditions, towing a trailer, extreme hot or cold) you might want to consider changing at 6000 miles. But you should certainly go with annual oil changes if you only drive 10K per year. Just check the color of the oil every so often, and if it looks transparent and not darkened, then it's still good.

The best answer is, I don't know for sure. But I will say my truck holds twenty seven gallons and I use an entire small bottle (12oz. or 14oz. I think) in that twice a year. It still runs like new. I have checked the original spark plugs about a year ago (at 130,000 miles), and they were in very good condition so I did not change them. The first "tune-up" was due at 90K. As far as the engine, I substitute one quart of oil for one quart of Marvels Mystery Oil. If you car holds say four quarts of oil. then maybe three and a half oil and 1/2qt MMO. Remember, it is acting as a detergent first and foremost, and a little does a lot. I am not sure if you read about my son's Nissan 350Z engine that was part of Nissan Quality Control test, he got a new engine in exchange for hia that had about 90K on it. We have been using MMO in every oil change. They called him after taking apart his engine, it looked brand new they said, and asked what he was doing to keep it that way. He mentioned the MMO at every oil change and they said, great, keep doing that it works. I have myself been using it for years since a child when my father was rebuilding racing engines. He used it religiously in all his rebuilt engines.

There is no definitive way to decide when your oil needs changing. Generally...every 7-10 uses. I refrigerate my oil (peanut), and depending on the visible "cloudiness" of the oil usually change it out every 8-10 uses.

2 Oz. per quart, and you do not have to add it each oil change. I do it every two oil changes and I can't talk for anyone else but it made a difference in both my motor and especially in my transmission. a 32 Oz. bottle is good for 3 oil changes when you put this in and you can wait for the 3rd oil change to use it, I just like every 2 times for myself. Good Luck!

I always use synthetic 10w30. It is a great all weather oil and you change it every 40 hours.

I have used it now for 6k miles and have found a reduced degree of oil burn. I change my oil every 6K and because of the excellent results I have seen on my 98 FORD XLT EXPEDITION 62K miles I will skip a treatment this change but plan on using this product on the next change. A lot cheaper than dropping an engine.The product says 30k but I always err on the side of caution.

I'm not an expert, but I would say you could easily go 5,000 miles minimum. Something else you can do, have an oil analysis done after that 5k miles. Swing over to Blackstone Labs' website, send off an oil sample and they will email you a detailed report on how the oil held up and whether you can run it longer or should change it more often. The reports may also indicate other things too, such as metal content in the oil (inadequate lubrication) or if there is coolant or fuel mixed in the oil. The cost is extremely reasonable.

K&N; makes one of the best oil filters on the market. It all depends on what your driving habits are, as the Honda oil wear algorithm takes that into account and will indicate when it is nearing the oil's end-of-life. If you use a good synthetic oil and this filter, there's no reason you can't go 7,500-10,000 miles depending on your driving.

Valvoline oils suffer from quick thermal breakdown. Check the color of the oil after 3k miles. Synthetic oils should be changed between 5k-7.5k miles. I tested this oil versus Castrol Synblend on a 2007 suburban. The Valvoline oil burned 1 qt per 1500 miles. The Castrol synblend did not burn off PERIOD.

Depends on what oil you're using. Anywhere from 20-35. Be sure to leave some room or you won't be able to get it to drip out very easily!

You can buy the XADO 1 Stage Maximum atomic metal conditioner and just do your normal oil changes. I use synthetic so I only change my oil every 10,000 miles.

It treats 5 quarts, my suv uses 8 and I've noticed a difference right away. Use it every oil change. It states every 5000 to 7000 miles,

Several factors, what type of oil your using? how many miles on vehicle and the interval of oil changes?

That's what they say, I change mine every 4500 or so. If you want to test it they have a company in Dallas Tx were you can mail a sample to see if the oil is still good. Hope this helps

Daniel, Over the years, I've been in the habit of using the product with every other oil change. I've always used the fuel treatment along with it. However, it depends on your driving habits and the kind of car you have. If you have a high performance auto, and drive hard, then you may want to use with each oil change. In all cases, use with fresh oil.

That's more based on your car than the oil. I have a 2012 VW golf and the recommended interval is 10k miles.
