Mobile One (Need Some Advice)
For those of you who are using Mobile One (or have used it).
Was wondering how often do you change out your oil. Since it is a Full Synth. Im assuming more than 5K? I own a 2011 V6 |

The V6 has a history of stretching cam chains.
If it were mine, I would use full synthetic and still change every 5,000 miles I tend to over maintain things though

Why push the limits?
Relatively speaking, oil changes are cheap. |
