Jim Ellis Chevrolet's Service Department is a proponent of "GM's Oil Life System." Chevrolet's equipped with the oil life monitor will tell you when to change your oil - it's no longer necessary to change your oil every 3,000 miles!
We know. Just like you, our grandfathers told our fathers who told us to change the oil every 3,000 miles! However, the advanced technology on Chevrolet's today make changing the oil every 3,000 miles unnecessary and a waste of oil, time, and money.
So, how do you tell when it's time to change your oil? Simple. When the "Change Oil Light" comes on or at least once a year. This averages every 7,500 miles but can be more or less on your driving conditions and how you drive your Chevrolet. Nowadays, if you own a Chevrolet with an oil life monitor and your dealer is telling you to come in every 3,000 miles, then they must just be trying to get more opportunities to sell you stuff, stuff you may or may not need!
