The average recommended interval by manufacturers on new cars is about 7800 miles. The 3000 mile requirement is a myth largely promolgated by service depts and quick lubes to get you in for a service interval. Go to Edmonds. com or google " oil change intervals" . We waste millons of barrels of oil and spend millons of dollars uselessly every year on needless changes. We also create a huge environmental problem.
