The black cabs are supposed to do it every 9k, but doubt they will
They spend their money on diesel with them only doing 25-30 mpg

For me I used to change the 206 oil every 12 months which ranged between 5k and 10k miles. I might change it soon (after removing and resealing the sump properly - it's leaked slightly since I got it back) as it's been in there 12 months and done about 1k miles!
For the Jetta I change it every 9k miles (all motorway mileage). Considering VW say they can do about 15k miles I think I'm being careful enough.
#13: Re: how often do you change engine oil? Author: Ape, Location: Clipping the Apex!Posted: Sat Jan 29, 2011 4:56 pm ---- Both my 206 and LCR have always had the oil changed at either 5k, 3 months or after a track day
