How Often Should You Change Oil?

Depends on your vehicle, oil type, and driving conditions. Here's the honest answer.

Follow Your Manual

Your owner's manual has the manufacturer's recommended interval. Start there.

Severe Driving? Change Sooner

Stop-and-go traffic, short trips, towing, extreme temperatures — all shorten oil life. If you drive mostly in the city, change more often.

Ignore the 25,000 km Marketing

Some synthetic oils advertise very long intervals, but real-world Canadian driving rarely supports them. Stick to 10,000–15,000 km max for full synthetic.
