The schedule

for an '01 is posted here . It ought to be close enough...I don't recall any big differences between my '99 and this '01.

Do change your oil much more often.

Thanks guys. That was exactly what I'm looking for. It surprises me the oil changes are 15k miles. I just changed mine after only 4k miles, Mobile-1 0W-40, oh well I'll let it go a little longer next time perhaps.

Not too much longer on the oil changes...the pros on here recommend changing approx every 5k miles. You may also consider looking at their recommendations on oil weight, such as 5W40 or 10W40.

Many, many threads on the oil topics if you do a search. Good luck and enjoy the car!
