I'm surprised so many people run 10,000 intervals. Toyota suggests 5,000.

5000 on regular dino oil...you can go farther with synthetic. Amsoil synthetic claims it lasts for upwards of 25000 miles..

One advantage to using synthetic motoroil....all cars sold in the US are running lean,which equals more heat.Better gas mileage,but definitely more heat..synthetic withstands this climate much better than dino.The one thing you won't change....these are still internal combustion engines,you will still have blow-by gas(es)..using dine or synthetic,no matter...change your oil often,and the filter!!!!!........dino or NOT!.Don't let the

get ya...all internal combustion engines aquire contaminates!.
