Has anyone noticed that much usage of oil between oil changes with 5000 mile intervals? I current have 24K on the car.
Stan is it difficult to change the oil? Where do you buy your filters? I am tired of paying 140 per oil change... i have a friend ( ex BF) who will change it for me... but it seems to cost almost the same for the filter.. 30$ ... and 8$ per qt oil?

any ideas?
