How often should I change my oil?

How often should I change my oil? I realized today that I hadn’t changed my car’s oil in over a year, but hadn’t reached the 3000 mile mark yet either (the farthest I ever drive is the 2 miles to Walmart). I check the level every so often — I just hadn’t change it. Is the 3 month mark for changing oil really that important?

Check the oil, if you still have enough and it has a visible goldish tint, you’re fine. But, if it’s no longer gold, it’s time to change it.

It usually doesn’t matter how long you let your oil sit in your car as long as you continue to drive it at least once a month. If you do this, then follow your standard delarship recommendations for your oil change. It is usually every 3,000 miles depending on your driving conditions and terrene.
