Oil Change

The last time I had an oil change was on August 2004 during my service B at 42,225 miles. It's now Sep. 2005 and I have about 43,955 miles and a long way to go until service A is due. I do not drive my car much. Should I change my oil now or is it ok to just leave it in there a liitle bit longer?

RE: Oil Change

hi Olivengco,
Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt changing the oil now because leaving the oil for too long in the engine may change its lubricating properties irrespective whether the car is being driven or not. This is also due to the fact that oil composition breaks down after a certain period of time. Also, it's much cheaper to change the oil rather than changing an engine. Cheers.
