My next intended oil change would be sometime this spring (when I'm planning to autocross anyway). I drive usually twice a week to the office (38 miles each way, though lots of traffic), and maybe put on an extra 5 or 10 miles the whole week beyond that.

Grrrrr. Note to self. Don't spend ~$60 on Motul oil when you might need to change it out after 2 days...

EDIT: Info on 5w40. Speculation it is safe even in winter. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=91820
Would love feedback on this, as I'm sitting on the fence.
