Question:

Recommended Oil Change Intervals for Mobil™ Motor Oils

You state that your oils are for 5,000, 15,000 miles, but what are the months before a change is due?

-- Billie Baskett, Robinson, TX

Answer:

We recommend you follow the oil and filter change frequencies shown in your owner's manual. Generally, this means changing your oil every six months when using Mobil Super™, Mobil Super High Mileage and Mobil Super Synthetic motor oils, and every year when using Mobil 1™ or Mobil 1 Extended Performance synthetic oils.
