4,700km and an oil change
So the Jeep is at about 4,700 km. Not bad considering we’ve had it just over 2 months
According to the owner’s manual, my driving habits dictate I can use both Schedule A and B (a 5,000km and 10,000km oil change interval). In the winter, the temperatures drop below 0 degrees C, so I should use schedule B (5K oil changes). But during the summer, I can use Schedule A (10K oil changes).
Well I’m old school so I plan on changing the oil every 5,000km regardless of the time of year and driving styles. We’re taking a short highway trip that should put the mileage at about 5,100 after the weekend so we’ll get the first oil change next week.
Look for more discussion of my oil change in the Jeep Compass Forums.
