Most vehicles will have a setting in place that will alert you to when your engine is in need of an oil change. Usually an oil change is needed every 3,000 to 7,000 miles depending on your vehicle and the oil used. If you tend to drive your vehicle through dusty conditions, extreme heat or at high altitudes your vehicle may be in need of more frequent oil changes.
