Anyone else have a hard time imagining going 15,000 miles without an oil change? I'm a little skeptic. What about the oil filter? Would you have to change that at normal intervals?

believe you are supposed to change the filter in the middle of that 15K?

Protege52003 said:i use the same combo.....but i belive it is a waste to change every 3k with you P5. the synthetic oil is made to go way longer than that. stick with dino oil if you are going to do it avery 3K.....
