I keep hearing different recommendations about oil changes — some say every 5,000 km, others suggest much longer intervals for modern cars. I live in Edmonton, so winters are harsh and roads are rough, and I’m not sure if I should follow the same schedule as everyone else or adjust for the conditions here. How do you decide how often to change the oil without overdoing it?

I’ve skipped oil changes before and didn’t notice immediate problems, but I worry that winter cold or short trips might be wearing the engine down faster than I realize. I’d like to find a practical schedule that keeps the car healthy without creating unnecessary trips to the shop.

I ended up following a routine that works for the local climate, and it made a real difference once I started using oil change Edmonton services consistently. Cold starts and short drives were actually wearing the engine more than I thought, and regular changes kept everything running smoother. It also gave me peace of mind — I wasn’t second-guessing whether skipping one month would ruin anything. Over time, sticking to a proper interval extended the engine life, improved performance, and made winter mornings far less stressful.
