    i am using semi synthetic, then replace every 5,000 km.

    I think na max ang every 5000 km chankge oil pag mineral, i think better kung mga 4,500km or less ay palit na.

    para less prone sa engine sludge go ka sa 5,000km oil change, since small interval lang kaya good na ang mineral oil

    I agree with you Meledson.
    I change mine every 5k regardless of vehicle new or old. It's all about removing the dirt not how long you can keep it in the engine for.
    The big push for longer interval oil changes were not from the car manufacturer's but from the so called green earth environmental people.
    If they want to be green focus on recycling and trucks, buses and jeeps spewing out thick black smoke not the common motorist.

    I'm from Australia and now reside in the Philippines and since I had my first car until my latest 2016 my target is always 5k more or less for oil changes you can't go wrong. I never used a catch can or blocked egr and never had any bad carbon build up either or turbo issues. NEVER had any sludge as well.
    I use a semi synthetic oil any good proven brand but If a mineral oil only I use mobile Delvac due to its additives.

    Others will debate that 7k-10-20k oil change is ok but with me the more regular you change the oil the more healthier your engine will be in the long run for your turbo, egr and piston ring wear.
    If it's a truck well that's a different story and topic as most run fully synthetic and can do 10k in a week of continuous running.
    In tI'm end it's not what oil you use but how often you change it.
