However, taking your car to a professional repair shop not only ensures that your engine would run well, it also allows the mechanic to spot some hidden troubles. At least you got some exercise while your car was being repaired. :)<br /><br /><a href="http://capitolhillexxon.com/" rel="nofollow">Randee Colton @ CapitolHillExxon.com</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08535130790794553050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15267358.post-43214958548903788362013-10-25T22:26:56.218-07:002013-10-25T22:26:56.218-07:00Cars can go 5,000 miles between oil changes (if it...Cars can go 5,000 miles between oil changes (if it's a newer car....my car fewer miles because I am about to hit 200k). The average driver uses their car 12,000 miles in a year. If nothing else (i.e., you can't change your ways), change your oil when you change your tires. You're not the only person in the world who completely forgets about their oil....I don't think my wife ever remembers to do it until I ask about it. Or, if you actually use a daily planner, remember it as 3,000 miles or every three months (or 4, whatever). In your planner just space out the 3 or 4 months between changes and then you will never forget about it again. It may be less than 3,000 miles but that never hurt a car...just your pocket book...but $30 is less than what you paid for a new engine.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07271806393127171809noreply@blogger.com
