How often should I change my Vauxhall Crossland's engine oil?

I recently bought a Vauxhall Crossland and I'm wondering how often I should change the engine oil. I know it's important to stay on top of maintenance, but I don't want to do it unnecessarily. Can you give me some advice on when to change the oil and how to properly do it?

As a general rule, it's recommended to change your engine oil every 5,000-7,000 miles or every six months, whichever comes first. However, if you have a more aggressive driving style or frequently take short trips, it's best to change your oil every 3,000 miles.

To properly change your Vauxhall Crossland's engine oil, you'll need to gather the necessary tools such as an oil filter wrench, funnel, and new oil. It's also important to let the engine cool down before starting. I recommend following the steps outlined in your owner's manual or consulting with a mechanic for guidance.

Don't forget to also check the oil level regularly and top it off as needed. This will help prolong the life of your engine and prevent any serious issues. And don't forget, always dispose of old oil responsibly!
