I've always felt that changing the oil was the more important part of that. I only change my filters spring and fall. In between I do regular oil changes. I've done this since the sixties. I always drive my vehicles until they have lots of miles and never had an engine failure. I've driven many of my vehicles to over 300,000km and were still running excellent and not useing oil when I got rid of them. The one I was most please with was a 1986 F250 with the 6.9 diesel. I drove it to 600,000km and was still running real nice but blew a head gasket. The rest of the truck was geting worn or mostly rusted out so I just retired it. I know there are people who will differ with this but it has served me well. I figure spend your money on a lower mileage oil change. If you keep your engine clean what's to filter.
