I didn't want to highjack anyone else's thread, so I just figured I would start this one. I have a 2018 ES. And I drive a lot. I am averaging about 550 miles per week. I have read all over the place, including the manual that 7,500 miles is the recommended milestone for the first oil change. Plus I have read in this forum that switching to a thicker oil (Other than 0W20) will make the engine a bit more quiet.
I just received my dealer "Free Oil Change" coupons in the mail and they are telling me change the oil every 3,000 miles. I have not had that many brand new cars and the 3,000 mile thing is a widely accepted rule (not a fact, just a rule of thumb).
So, which is it?? Thoughts? Am I nuts, just putting too much thought into it?
