What is your question?
I have a 2008 RX 350 w/ 171k miles on it, and am averaging around 18k miles per year. How often should I change the oil and what type of oil is best to use? I know the standard is 5,000 miles, however I have had a mechanic tell me 7,000. I want my car to last as long as possible so I need to make sure I am taking care of it! Any other tips to keep her going are greatly appreciated!

Hello, The only maintenance schedule you should follow is in the back of the owners manual. If it calls for synthetic every 5k miles, then stick with that to be safe. That being said, I use mobil 1 euro formula, and it has to be changed every 10k miles... because synthetic does not break down so quickly. That is a Mercedes with 120k miles of performing changes @10k miles
