How Often Should You Change Your Car’s Engine Oil?
Cars older than 10 years usually require more frequent oil changes, typically every 7,000 to 15,000 km. For newer cars, frequent oil changes are generally not necessary. Even without changing the lubricant, they can often go up to 30,000 km without any issues.
However, this applies to vehicles operating under normal driving conditions. If the conditions are different—such as extremely high or low temperatures, or heavy usage like taxis, ambulances, or police cars—a more individualized approach is needed.
In any case, an oil change at least once a year is recommended.
