Basic owners maluals suggests 3000 miles or 3-6 months.
I totally disagree with the above answer. Almost no manufacture is recommending 3,000 mile oil changes. The 3,000 mile oil change is only recommended today by people making money off these or by people living in the past. Modern oils, and filters and the use of unleaded fuel, have made the 3,000 mile oil change all but obsolete. Change your oil according to the recommendations of the manufacture of your vehicle. I know for a fact they know way more about this than a novice. Follow the severe schedule if you are uncomfortable following the normal schedule.

There are various thoughts about how often oil should be changed however, the cleaner the oil, the better it is for your vehicle. My last car had 365,000 miles on it and it was still running. I attribute a lot of that to changing the oil frequently. A car in many cases is an individuals major investment. For the cost of changing the oil, it's all worth it.

Gear oil should be changed every 4,000 to 5,000 miles. Motor oil should be changed every 3,000 miles to keep the engine running clean.

After 3,000 miles you should have your oil changed and I believe after the first 1,000 miles on a new car it should be changed. If you have a lot of miles on your vehicle it might start burning oil.
