You don't have to write down every time you change the oil but I will tell you that, by changing the oil as often as possible, it can only be GOOD for the car. The only wasteful part of this that I can see is the utilization of new filters all of the time. The oil is recycled at my local transfer station so...it's not being poured into the ground. It's being recycled. Nothing is more critical to a motor than CLEAN motor oil, period! I have never heard of a warranty claim denied due to TOO frequent an oil change schedule.

i too, would rather change my oil at right intervals than rely on those bumbling people at stealerships if i need to excise my warranty

i guess many here don't agree with us - had good experience with stealerships

+1 , reason why do it at home . Cheaper too . 3 and 1/2 quarts fills to or bit below the FULL mark . Have had dealer / private service centers overfill by a quart or no oil at all ( did change filter , forgot the oil ) . .

i too had that experience, no more - i am changing the oil myself now. they overfilled it(they placed four quarts in with out thinking about the .5 oil possibly in there - or they didn't change the filter)
