On the other hand, I went 10,000+ between oil changes on my synthetic. Just make sure you always check it and top it off. These cars can burn it.

i was BARELY over.
i posted this because i have never heard this sound before. and ive gone 4500 miles without an oil change. i am ALMOST 500 miles over.
my oil is topped off now and still the sound remains.
and i did check my oil before this post. it was the very first thing i did.

This article says 95-96 octane, although this could very easily be false.
