Just like it says - how often do you change your oil, at what mileage?

I change it every 3 months, which is usually about 2000-3000km, if not sooner

I am usually right at 3k but sometimes go over due to being busy or just basic laziness. :p

In the truck I change it right before I hit 3k. I am severe OCD on it's maintanence
the g6 I usually change around 4k when the monitor gets around 30%
n the mustang every 3 months since the odometer doesn't work lol

Well though ever one you must remeber ...What type of oil you use ..if standerd then 3 - 4 is correct ..But if you use symthetic you go longer cause the oil stays cleaner longer ..Synthetic lets you go 5 -6 ....

Royal Purple is too expensive to change as often as I used to. I've changed my oil 7 times in 18,000 miles.

i'm pretty anal with the hondas- 2500-3000 or less depending on how long it's been. got 365k out of my last honda car before needing anything besides plugs/wires & 2 routine timing belt/waterpump jobs. I had her from day one..
the fd gets an oil change every 3 months, it's only got 7600 miles to date though..(last year I only drove about 300 miles in her) we just line 'em up and have "oil change day" when its time..
