Is it alright to top off with oil instead of changing after 3000 miles?

처리 내용

You should generally go by the manufacturer's instructions, the car's handbook should specify the change interval - but I don't know of any modern car with that low an interval. Therefore you should top it up unless you're near the interval. Saying that, if you've lost a significant amount of oil in that time, I'd want to be investigating why...
