Miles between oil changes


Recommended Posts

Just changed the oil on my son's 2016 C-max Energi.  Uses it for commuting, drives 60 miles/day about 20 miles of

it is electric.  Used Mobile One synthetic 0W-20 extended miles.  Oil says its guaranteed for 15000 miles.

I assume that is for normal ICE vehicle.  So how many miles could he go before changing oil again?

Has anyone tested the Mobile One Oil in their car?

Here's a single data point for you.

 

DFW region, 2013 CMax, at 73k miles, Blackstone tested the oil with 17k miles on the Ford Motocraft Full Synthetic, 5w-20.

 

Blackstone said I could have run the oil to 19k miles.

 

Oil was tested May 30, 2018, so it was largely run through the winter months in the DFW region...ambient temps mostly 60-75f, maybe a few weeks 50-60f. Probably a 50/50 balance of city/highway.
