Nothing wrong with doing the long-duration oil change bit BUT you still have to change your filter every 3000miles.
One of my buddies and my nephew are long distance truckers, oil changes for then aare by the pail. They send in samples to a company that checks the oil and tells them when to change the oil. Most times it's around the 35,000 KM mark. Another buddy runs the local watercooled VW repair shop, he uses ELF semi-synthetic (15-40) in his customers engines and changes the oil every 12000KM, filter change at 6000KM. His price on the ELF oil is $40. Canadian. Royal purple is only available at a few performance shops here, making it a PITA to get. |
