How often is an oil change recommended even though the computer tells you your oil life?

THAT is the question nobody seems to agree on. Different makes have diffent change intervals. One recommends 3 months or 3000 miles, while the other recommends twice a year or 8000 miles. Most garages seem to say 3 to 4 months or 3000 miles, though consumers reports did a test a few years ago on taxis in New York City and came out with a recommendation of 6 months or 6000 miles. The choice is yours, but I would err one the side of caution. Every 4 months sounds like a good compromise.
