With relatively recent improvements to car motor technologies and motor oil quality, the answer to the question “How often should you change your oil” has been changing. Traditionally, you’d want to get your oil changed roughly every 3,500-5,000 miles. For people with older vehicles, this is likely still the case. However, for most newer cars — especially if they use synthetic oil — you can safely go between 7,500-10,000+ miles between oil changes. Biggers Chevrolet has the details.
