I just made my first oil change in my 05...I added R-P synthetic and a synthetic oil filter. How many miles can you go between oil changes with the synthetic? Thanks

Hummer service manager was glad when i walked in with Royal Purple engine oil and tranny fluid. Best choice You could make. I do not know about that as everyone has a preference. But, I did not chnage to royal to extend oil chnages but, increase protection with the power I'm running. I have heard going to 5000 miles with a good syn. is not a big deal I have talked to some who are not off roaders who go 10,000 miles and have reports from their ser. guys the oil stil looked good. I just go buy the normal oil change and figure it is allot cheaper than a new engine.
