Annually. Whatever the mileage is.

Simplifies things.

** may not work for everyone. The most miles a year I'll put on any one car is maybe 8000-10000.

Definitely won’t work for me. I put 25-30k miles a year on my truck. If I was in your boat at 8-10k, annually would be perfect.

My V8 had its first oil change at 10k miles/1YR in Jan 2023. I’m at 22600 now, and I’m debating on waiting until January for the second oil change. JLR’s website says 16k miles for oil changes, so I should be fine, right?

I’m also not going in blind like when the dealer charged me $1600 for my V6 service 😭. This time I know what I’m requesting specifically.
