When to change you oil is always a debate amongst car lovers, but it ultimately comes down to two main factors:
- How often do you use your car?
- How many miles do you do each year?
The experts recommend that you change you oil every 7,500 miles, however if you do less than this you must be sure to change the oil at least once per year. This was quoted on Yahoo Autos:
