Default Re: DIY: Oil Change w/ pics. & Reset Maintenance Required Light

Ok, so my dealer told me they go "by the book" when changing oil. He says, we change the oil after the first 5000 miles and not a mile sooner. The manual does say to change the oil at 5000 mile intervals. When I told him I usually change my oil (on my other car) at 3k intervals, he told me the Tundra engine is designed to allow changing every 5k miles.

Anybody think otherwize?

By the way, that is one great picture library of an oil change - as good or better than any manual.

Tom
