I was wondering, I have never heard of any commonly understood mileage range one should go on their synthetic oil when used in their engines.
I know with regular oil the intervals are 3,000-4,000 miles between changes.
What is the "recommended" interval one should go with synthetic oil?
With synthetic, what mileage would be pushing it to get the longest life out of the oil, and what mileage range would be considered to be an "early" change to help protect the engine even more (such as the 3,000 mile mark with mineral oil)?
Thanks.
