    I have a question. At page 150 of the European user manual for the Jeep Renegade, it says to change the oil every 30k kilometers (19k miles). (And this applies to most petrol engines sold in the last 5 decades.)

    Why in USA it’s common to replace the engine oil 4-6 times as often?

      I’ve had the oil in my 2008 Sienna analyzed a few times by Blackstone Labs, and have been told that 5k miles is what I should stick to.
