Oils of the recommended quality are all you need for good performance and engine protection. Consult your dealer if you think your engine has an oil-related problem. Engine Oil Change Intervals The required oil and oil filter change intervals vary considerably between climates, geographical locations, terrain and driving conditions. The export-specific Maintenance Schedule booklet provided with your vehicle shows the oil and oil filter change intervals required for your specific area. Make sure to follow the change intervals listed in the export-specific Maintenance Schedule booklet and not those listed in any other English booklet that might be provided with your vehicle. The oil and oil filter change intervals recommended in the Maintenance Schedule for your engine are based on the use of recommended quality oils and high quality filters. Using oil other than those recommended, or changing the oil and filter at longer intervals than recommended could reduce engine life. How frequently you have to change the oil depends on your driving patterns, engine rpm and engine temperature. Depending on your driving conditions, the mileage interval at which an oil change is necessary can vary considerably. . . . 304
