I haven't looked up my my intervals in a few years, but I think it was 7500/3000 miles depending on the type of usage. I changed it at 1000 and every 3000 (give or take) since then. I change the filter more often than not, but I can get them at a pretty good price.

My small turbo engine consumes oil, so at the very least I would have to top it up regularly. I don't really like doing that, and since changing it isn't all that hard I just keep on changing it. I don't go with synthetic because of the cost and I'd heard a lot of complaints that these engines went through it faster than dino.
