Hi

Yes and no. Standard oil change intervals are based on using the standard spec of oil, if I remember correctly, that's a pretty basic 15w-40 (perhaps 10w-40) in a Saxo. If you use an oil like that, it's going to wear out quite quickly and offer very little protection by the end of the service interval. If you use a good, reputable oil, it should be absolutely fine for the full interval.

Cheers

Tim
