3 oil changes 1000 miles a month equates to 12 000 miles a year. 12 000 miles divided by 4 000 miles equals 3. Therefore 3 oil changes need to be made.

book says every 3750 miles for mostly city driving or 7500 for mostly hwy driving. I split the difference and change mine every 5000 miles.
If you mean how long to go in between oil changes, I think that even under the severest conditions every 2000 miles should be fine.
On a car that is 14 years old, the factory nor dealer recommendation is mute. If you use normal Oil and not Synthetic and do lots of city driving, stop and go, short trips, change it every 3,000 miles. If you do mostly highway driving, change it every 4,000 miles. If you use synthetic then change it every 5,000 miles. Where you live and the temperature is also a factor. If you live in a high heat area, then change it every 3,000 miles city/highway. Synthetic, every 4,000. Also be sure to replace the air filter every 30,000 miles and 15,000 in an extremely dusty area.
Personally, I change it (and the oil filter) every 3,000 miles +/- 100 miles or so. Some say this is overkill as most auto manufacturers claim 7,500 miles is sufficient between changes. It doesn't hurt anything to change it sooner, especially if the majority of your driving is stop and go city traffic.
Change the oil and filter every 5,000 miles if you are using conventional oil and every 7,000 miles if you use synthetic. This applies to normal driving.
Change the oil/filter every 5,000 miles if you use conventional oil, and every 8,000 miles if you use synthetic.
Most mechanics recommend that you get an oil change every 3000 miles. However, newer vehicles require fewer oil changes. More specifically, a volkswagen requires an oil change every 5000 miles.
You should change your oil every 3 months or 3,000 miles.
You should change the oil/filter at least every 7,500 miles according to Honda. I would recommend every 5,000 miles unless you do mostly highway driving.
Every 3,000 to 4,000 miles or once every 3 months..depending on your driving conditions.
Change the oil & filter every 5,000 miles if you use conventional oil and every 7,500 if you use synthetic.
