Good afternoon and happy holidays to everyone!
This is a great site with so much excellent information....Thank you.
Because of this site with all the wicked reviews of PP, I had an oil change today and switched from using Mobil 1 EP to PP. I was changing my oil every 7500 km....and I was wondering with the PP If I can do the same drain time.
Thank you everyone.

You can do longer! How big is your sump and what type of driving do you do?

Your mileage probably could be done with dino oil .

Your sump is 7.5 Quarts, not Liters. 7-8k miles (12.5k Km) on that oil and sump capacity is fine. What filter will you be using?

Do a UOA after the run and sleep better at night knowing that the interval you run is completely safe! The lab may even suggest a longer interval, saving even more money in your pocket...

Wow....thats great that I can go that long!!!
I live in Canada...and my car takes 7.5 liters of oil for a fill....is that the same as quarts?

I bought 1 - 4.4 liter jug and 3 - 1 liter bottles....the oil filter used was a Delco....
10w30 - oil...

Never been so happy changing my oil!!!!

Great product.

Amsoil website lists the sump as 7.5 quarts which comes out to roughly 7.9 Liters.

7500 km is no problem.

PP is a great product.

You would even have a few extra km to spare if you had to stretch it a little between changes.

I'll let my wife put 5000 miles on a change with PP.

Others will recommend even longer change intervals.
