Default Re: Oil changes: dealership or generic oil change place? And how often?

people who make money from you changing your oil recommend you change it every 3000 miles. People who don't, don't. Read the owner's manual for your car. The manual for my Accord recommends every 9k miles or so, my wife's Mini recommends longer than that. I imagine each car is different, but my guess is 3k is unnecessary for any car bought in the last 15 years.
