Default I've been changing mine every 8k with Mobile1. Schedule says every 10k...
but it doesn't specify if you should use full synthetic or not. Engine is very clean after 142k miles. It's always had full synthetic at 10K intervals before I owned it.

Depends on how you drive your car. I'd change oil every 5k or 6 months whichever comes first.

Every 350 miles or 19 weeks. Whichever comes first.
