[W126 Coupe] oil changes

[Richard & Nancy Diefenbach]

A few days ago there was a question on oil changes when putting a car up for
winter.  I believe the general consensus of opinion was it's not necessary
if you are using a synthetic such as Mobil 1.   My question is aren't there
contaminants that build up in the oil such as acids because of starting and
stopping driving?  I was always under the impression that changing the oil
rather than have it sit  5 or 6 months is a better practice.  Can someone
tell me that's not true so I don't have to spend all that money each fall?

 

Thanks, as always-
