The answer is, you don't *have* to change oil frequently, but the engine is marginally better off for it, as the oil does deteriorate with use. It's less important with synthetic oils, as they last longer. Even so, I will always change my oil at least once between services. If you don't believe this, look at the colour of the oil at 6,000 miles - I'll bet it's pretty much black, instead of a nice clear golden colour. ======================================================= Guy Chapman, IT Wallah, NT guru, Mac lover, Volvo driver.
