Explanations:
In the past, it was commonly recommended to change car oil every 3000 miles or 3 months, whichever came first. However, with advancements in engine technology and the use of synthetic oils, many manufacturers now recommend longer oil change intervals of up to 5000-7500 miles or 6-12 months. It's always best to refer to your vehicle's owner manual for the recommended oil change schedule. Regular oil changes are still important, but not necessarily every 3000 miles.
