If you’ve been changing your oil every 3,000 miles - STOP! That is a myth that has been proven outdated by automakers and has been around for decades. Before there were advanced technologies as we have today, previous generations had to rely on a standard that seemed to work well at the time. But now it's just a waste of time and money!
Vehicles and oil have gone through remarkable improvements over the years. Nowadays, automakers are increasingly advising owners to change their oil anywhere from 7,500 to 10,000 miles and even higher for certain vehicles. However, you must be careful and not take that latitude as being too flexible. You still need to follow a regular interval based on your specific manufacturer. Our Gurley-Leep Lincoln service department is more than qualified to provide you with regular oil changes and assure that your vehicle remains on track.
