If you have a car, either a new or an old one, it means you have to visit "the car doctor" at least twice a year. Don't forget it, don't avoid it and don't pass it. Oil Changes are required by your car to work properly, and I would say the only "scheduled maintenance" you need to ensure not to delay.
When should I do it?
Oil Change is the warranty (literally) that your vehicle engine will perform as expected and last longer. Most car manufacturers recommend doing oil changes between 5,000 - 8,000 Km.
If you are leasing a car, it is very important that you ensure to keep all receipts of the work done it, including oil changes. These are evidence for the manufacturer if in the future you have engine problems and they need to replace it with a new one.
