Does anyone else have a daily driver of around 12000 miles/year that has interval oil/filter changes in between yearly services?

Cheers

Wouldn’t think there are too many of those on here.

I bet someone proves me wrong though…

Morning mate!! My RS is approaching 36,000 miles and 3 years old. I have changed my oil and filter every 6,000 miles/6 months. I buy my oil in bulk from Opie Oils, works out about £30 each time for oil and a tenner for filter from Ford.

Cheers, Marc.

When I dip my oil to check the level I hate to see it dirty so it gets changed.
about every six months as it turns out.

Mine has had roughly two a year but mainly because it had the H/G done twice luckily between services so worked out in that way without a cost to me.
