I will suggest 3000-4000miles or 6 months if you have not achieved the distance after such time has passed.

I usually take a picture of odometer the time I change oil. I add 3500miles to it, what it gives me is my next service which is usually less than 6 months.

Remember to use a good oil filter, there are so many fakes out there. Sometimes I buy original such as Bosch, Fram etc and use for 2 oil lives.
Even when you buy Bosch you shouldn't be using it for two changes.

With synthetic oil, every 5,000 miles or three months (whichever comes first) or when your car tells you to if your car does that.

You typically have about 500 miles left to go from when your service light goes on to when you absolutely must get the oil change done.

I'm going to save you some time here.
Get thee to a repair shop for proper diagnosis. It will be faster than waiting days for everyone here to guess and debate. NO ONE CAN RELIABLY DIAGNOSE YOUR CAR WITHOUT SEEING IT!! they can trial and error by process of elimination only.

Car Talk › Re: Is it Safe to Buy a Car with High Mileage? by radautoworks: 7:05am On Jul 26, 2018
Kashif:
V6 will outlive I4 under the same engineering, driving and maintenance condition. But it is just the engine.

Generally, low mileage vehicles are BETTER than high mileage ones.
Our experience is the reverse. 4 cylinders require a lot less work at the same mileage than 6. Just from comparing vehicles in our customer base for over 15 years.
Not disputing low mileage is typically better but it's less about the mileage and more about the kind of miles and maintenance.

It is a 2006 Land Rover LR3 HSE front strut drivers side. Pls give an equivalent.
Unfortunately I couldn't find you a cheaper equivalent. My recommendation is to get a remanufactured unit straight from the manufacturer and import it.

How much will it cost me to replace my two front shocks and lower arms for MDX 2005. The radiator fan also suddenly stopped working making me feel the heat from the engine through the steering compartment but when i put on the ac the fan picks . and the heat stops .Plz what could be the culprit?
As far as the radiator fan and shocks go, we do free diagnostics with repair and will be about to tell you anything wrong once we see the car. We don't check just your complaint, we check the whole vehicle. Even the parts you think you need, you may not need all.

Thanks. Prices are nerve/artery popping but we'll see what we can do.

No quote for the cat?
Really? I'm curious to see what other pricing we can get for those here. Are you repairing commercial or this is for your own use?

I didn't put price for cat because I don't know which of three you want. That's why I put the links to each.
