I have a new Corolla Cross that just hit 5,000 miles. My car indicator came up saying “maintenance needed” but I know the Toyota manual says to do first oil change at 10,000
My dealership won’t pay for a 5K oil change so if it’s not necessary, I won’t waste money to do it. I’m not a car person so I don’t know how necessary it is doing it at its first 5,000
For info, I typically drive about 25 miles total a day to commute.
I’m running a 1988 Toyota Van daily driver with 339k on her with conventional oil, get it changed every 2.5-3k religiously. I check all the fluids in a biweekly basis. Fluids are the trick to longevity.
