How often should I change the engine oil in my Vauxhall Vivaro?

I've just purchased a used Vauxhall Vivaro and I'm not sure how often I should be changing the engine oil. I want to make sure I am properly maintaining my vehicle.

Congratulations on your new Vauxhall Vivaro, Emily! It is recommended to change the engine oil every 10,000 miles or every 12 months, whichever comes first. However, if you do a lot of stop-and-go driving or frequently tow heavy loads, it's best to change it more frequently, every 5,000 miles or 6 months. This will ensure your engine stays properly lubricated and protected.

Hi Emily, it's always best to refer to your vehicle's owner manual for specific maintenance guidelines. However, in general, following the recommended oil change interval is sufficient for a well-maintained Vauxhall Vivaro. Make sure to use high quality oil and change it according to the manufacturer's recommendations to keep your engine running smoothly.

Hey Emily, as long as you use high quality oil and regularly change it according to the manufacturer's recommendations, your Vauxhall Vivaro's engine should stay in good condition. If you notice any unusual noises or performance issues, it's best to have a mechanic check it out. Better safe than sorry!
