[QUOTE="Johnny O, post: 973191, member: 61743"] I used to do it every 5000 even with synthetic oil. After getting a few used oil analysis that were fine, now I just set the oil life monitor to 100% and change it when it goes off, about 7500 miles. The last time it went off at 6500 miles because 6 months came up before 7500 miles did. I use Mobil 1 or K&N filters that have synthetic filter media instead of paper and are good for a longer time. If you are going to change it at 5000 miles or less then Motorcraft Blend oil and Motorcraft filters are perfectly fine. [/QUOTE]
