Just make sure you aren't low that's more important.

Default Depends on what's recommended...

My Accord got dino oil every 7500 miles, per the manuals schedule. It's a 93 with over 155,000 miles and runs great. The A4 gets 0W-30 synthetic, the next oil change will be at 10K (currently 7850), followed by 20K, 30K, etc.
