For many years, all i've done was something like 5% city and short trips/35% country roads/60 % highway. OCI is usually between 7500 and 10 000 kms max. As far as oil goes, i've used any cheap 5W30, 5W40, 10W40 and 15W40 depending on what i find in my stash and the time of the year.
From now on i'll be driving mostly in a city, mostly doing errands plus maybe 200 to 300 km of highway each month at the most. I'd say my driving will consist in something like 50% city and short trips/30% country roads/20% highway.
Car is the C180 in my sig, M111 engine which is an inline 4, port injected, N/A, 16 valve, DOHC with a double row roller timing chain, fuel is E85. Would you run a shorter OCI? So far i'm thinking about just keeping the OCI at 7500 kms with the cheap 10W40 i have in my stash (SN, 229.3...). What would you do?
