Hi everyone,
I have done a search for this topic but couldn't find anything.
I have a 2005 prado with the 1 KZTE engine.
During the warranty period i was changing the oil religiously every 3 months. However I only do approx 2000 km in 3 months (city driving).
The warranty has now expired and i was wondering if i really need to change the oil every 3 months (the service book says 5000km or 3 months).
Can i stretch it out to 5000km (or approx every 6 months) without risking any engine damage? I have read that oil deterrioates with age but i'm not sure how true this is.
Thanks,
Tom
