"you should've follwed your owners manual"

I change my oil every 10,000 miles in my 2001 LS430 . I have had my oil analiyzed once at 7500 miles and again at 10,000 (80% oil life left, but containaments were getting to the point they recomended changing it before 12,000 miles. Corvettes factory filled mobil one change every 15,000 .Porsche ,(check thier website) mobil one every 20,000 miles. You are throwing money away at 3k or 5k. The LS460 comes with regular motor oil from the factory 0-20 weight. They do not recomend synthetic, I asked why? The Lexus rep said they do not see the customer often enough for other maintence!!!

I changed my 450h every 8-10K with mobile 1 full synthetic when I still had it.
Now I change our GX every 8-10K with mobile 1, and our new addition to the family cayanne gts every 10K.
