    how can you like a brand like that? that's specifically why i avoid toyota
    Just saying that I do not or will not follow Toyota if they implement an every 3 months PMS interval

    Basta ako 5t Kms or 6 months.

    And if they did implement, on a strict basis, maybe I'd stop buying them.

    As far as I can see, they don't implement that crap.

    So everything's good.

    Unlike, Honda or Hyundai.

    Others' experience may vary, though.

    Well, that's the average, basing on the current odometer reading and how many years the vehicle's been used and the average speed based on MID reading.

    Unfortunately, I don't keep detailed records.

    No time nor inclination.

    Hehehe.

    150 hours of use?

    So if I drive an average of 2 hours a day in metro traffic, the mineral oil is just good 75 days?

    Or 2.5 months?

    Hmmmm....

    20 kms per day average runs, in 2.5 months, 1500 kms.

    I have to change oil every 1500 kms, now.

    i don't know, i'm not a tribologist

    my car maker specifies API-xx (mineral or otherwise, it doesn't specify) and change every 10,000km or 6mo whichever comes first when driving under non-"severe" conditions.

    so i just follow that. been doing that w/ several cars already. everything's been fine

    no answer from toyota about the hours...

    one guy says 100-150 hrs (2005). but this was before api-sn thats required for some toyotas now. oils have indeed improved since then, see photo below.

    follow manufacturer recommendation.

    Are there any vehicles equipped with hour run meters? Counterpart of the odometer? That cannot be reset? We can talk all we want about the number of hours before oil needs to be changed, but unless we can monitor it accurately, everything is an exercise in futility, in my opinion. And there must be a good reason why car manufacturers don't put one -- the hour run meter -- in our cars.
