How long should it be between oil changes with using both RP Filer and RP Oil it's a newer car that I average 3000 miles a month of highway driving

My Honda Ridgeline has an oil life report built into the mileage reading. This tells me when it is time to change the oil. Too many things come into play to answer your question. Check with people in your area and with your type of car, also the oil manufacture.

The Brand of Oil & the Brand of Filter-- has nothing to do with when you change itYou can come on these forums & try to make a case about your preferencesBut are they fact based & what the vehicles motor requiresNothing to do with the manufactures silly recommendationsFollow only that you won't have much to do & will break downThey only suggest less than the bare min

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.

They say you are suppose to change your oil every 3000 miles. you prob can go a bit longer with this filter and oil only if it is not hard driveing.

I'd check your owners manual but generally GM specifies 10-30 weight oil. Depending on your mileage the move to synthetic can improve gas mileage slightly and assist the engine in running a bit cooler as less friction. If your engine has any leaks it may exacerbate them. Once you switch to synthetic you should stick with it.

Use the recommended weight for your vehicle. Also it may or may not fix your issue. You could get lucky and your old r/e fluid has lost viscosity thus a fluid change will fix it. Even then if you go to long with it whining, parts could get worn down beyond a fluid change fixing the issue

It's being so long since I bought it....I usually buy detergent oil but one thing to remember is you can't use this oil an an engine with less than 10,000 miles. The rings will not seat. Otherwise, it's good oil and you may have an increase in horsepower too.. Call Royal purple to be sure, don't go buy what people say. It just a simple phone call. ernie

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.

I've used it for over 7,000 miles in my FJR 1300 with a wet clutch. An excellent product, improved shifting,quieter and easier revving .I definitely recommend this oil.

I put one on my 2013 JGC about a year ago. I have noticed a small increase in gas mileage. I drive 50/50 highway and city. I get about 18 mpg. When I get a BG Fuel treatment with my oil change it bumps it another mpg to about 19 mpg. I drive about 30 -50 miles a day on the interstate (4 days a week) and 15 miles a day in the city (7 days a week).

Conervatively, most so called experts will say new generators need their first oil change after25 hours. Beyond that, you'll have to dump refill every 50 or 60 hours. I usually look at the oil, finger test for color and viscosity, if it is fine I leave it alone and add when it is needed.

Use the Lucas as 1 qt. Of motor oil....exmp....if vehicle uses 5 qts. For oil change with filter, use 4 qts. Oil 1 qt lucas.......great stuff

Many times the dealer will overfill the oil. Go check your dipstick right now and see if it is in the appropriate range. If it is on the lower end of acceptable you could prolly add the ceretec now. However, if is overfilled take it back to the dealer and demand that they drain some out carefully. They should do this at no charge. Although they might be surprised as many folks don't even check the dipstick anymore and may try to blow you off. I have even experienced a dealer put twice as much oil as needed in a car!!! Trust me they really are not paying very good attention to things like oil changes... Many times the dealer will overfill the oil.

I wouldn't use any liqui moly product especially ceretec until break-in is over. Things need to wear and in the right places. After 10,000 miles then maybe. Refer to the owner's manual for specifics concerning driving habits and oil change intervals during that time.

I use 10/30 Mobil 1, but any multi vis oil will work, Holds about .8 qts. I change it every 20-30hrs.

This Mobil1 oil filter is one of the best on the market especially if you use Mobil-1 SuperSyn Synthetic oil. I've done all my oil changes with Mobil1 at 6k-10k miles intervals and the engine internals look like new at over 100k miles...

I have the equivalent of Nissan Altima. With this oil, I change every 6000miles and my ride has been smooth.

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!
