Is there still a recommendation on changing engine oil based on length of time passed. My wife's Civic goes 5-6k before the oil life reading dips below 30%, which is when we change it. This happens about twice per year as she drives about 12k miles. If I start driving her car and only put about 6k miles on it for the year (shorter commute), can I go a full year without changing the oil or should I still do it every 6 months?
Personally I would do it every six months, I would worry about some condensation build up if nothing else.
