How many miles can you go over you oil change mileage?

I needed an oil change about 1000 miles ago and it is only Tuesday. I can't afford to get one until I get paid Friday so I probably really won't get one done until Sunday. Will it really affect my car that bad if I wait?How many miles can you go over you oil change mileage?
really 1000 over is nothing just a couple weeks of driving wouldnt kill the car any it will wait a few days many people run way over that most do anyways but wouldnt hurt any for a day or two longerHow many miles can you go over you oil change mileage?
5 days should not affect anything assuming your not going on a 5000 mile trip. Make sure it is not low on the dipstick.If so it should be topped off.
A few days isn't going to hurt, but the 1000 miles you already went over can. Check your owners manual to see how often you should change it. Despite what commercials tell you, it isn't always every 3000 miles.
you can go 5,000 miles safely between changes if you so please.
A lot depends on the type of driving. If you have been doing short trips in town you will need shorter oil change intervals than if you are driving on the freeway a lot. It also depends on the type of oil. Synthetic oil will go a lot longer than mineral oil without sludging.


What you don't say is 1000 miles past what - how many miles it has actually been. If you are up to 4000 miles now it is no big deal. If you are up to 11000 miles now (some cars, especially in Europe, are going to 10K mile intervals) that is a bit much. My Prius sedan has 7500 mile intervals, 5000 in severe conditions.
what is the intervals between/most people change it too often/with unleaded gas 5k is realistic for reg oil
Depends on what year your car is...alot of newer cars don't need oil changes until every 4-5,000 miles. They are alot more efficient, and can go around that long before changing. I like to change mine every 3,000 miles because I drive stop and go traffic, which is considered BAD for your engine oil. Highway is best.
The instant oil change places say you need to change ';3 months or 3,000 miles';, and that's not a bad idea, but you can stretch it.





The State of Michigan does oil changes on its fleet cars every 5,000 miles.





Many manufacturers say to change the oil every 7,500 miles.





The most important thing is to check your oil level regularly, especially if you're past the 3,000 mile mark, to make sure it's still full. You can always at a half quart or so if needed.
yes it can wait till friday. but not a day pass that. just playing.
You should be alright, unless you plan on traveling across the country.





Depending on your driving habits, you can actually go about 5K miles on an oil change.
