Hi
Shell Rotella is just ordinary oil. I would stick with the normal 3000
miles with that oil or any standard oil. You can extend the interval if
you change to full synthetic oil to 5000 no problem.

Subject: [MV] CUCV 6.2 ltr. oil change frequency.
I normally change oil every 3000 miles or quarterly (Q-Service) like
clockwork. I started using Shell Rotella when I bought the truck.
I have heard from several sources that if you use Shell Rotella, the oil
change interval can be safely extended to 5000 miles.
Is this true or an invitation to disaster?
I'm not sure that, even if it is true, I could change old habits and
risk
my motor.
I missed most of the last oil change thread. What was the group
concensus
on the best oil filter for the Chevy 6.2.
OK you experts, pundits, and pranksters, have at it.
