How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?

I discover oil leakage from my car oil filter and my oil level is now btw L and F of the oil guage.This was due to improper tighten of the filter which I have rectified now i.e proper tighten now. My meter reads 1500km from last service date. Should I change the oil now or top it to the F mark? Pls advise me.

Do what your car's owner's manual says to do. It tells you what maintenance intervals. The fuel filter can go as long as 80,000 miles as long as you haven't ever run out of fuel and emptied the fuel tank. That causes the fuel filter to plug up and it needs replacing then.How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?
just fill it to the oil mark. the proper oil change should be done at 3000 to 3500 miles(not into kilometers) ok fuel filter on new car as in brand new first 5000mi. then every 15000mi.(unless it's done by toyota's service standards- which they require every 10000mi. that's why they last as long as they do. belts every 15000 to 20000mi. brakes every 20000 to 25000mi. anti freeze every 25000 to 30000mi. spark plugs every 25000 to 30000mi. transmission every 25000mi. differentials every 20000 to 25000mi. if you do this type of maintenance on your vehicle it will last you up to 10 to 15 years. because you will still need to do other types of work. that can't be done unless you have all the tools necessary. and proper work place.How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?
Do you mean the oil guage indicator on the dipstick? If so yes, fill your oil up to the full mark. Make sure to use the correct oil.



If your not on about the F mark on the dipstick then Ive never heard of an oil guage in a car apart from the oil pressure and temperature guage which is completely different that doesn't relate to your oil LEVEL.



Top the oil up, the oil should be changed usually every 10,000/15,000km since last change. Check your owners manual!!!How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?
Top it off, you should be fine. If you were only loosing a small amount of oil over a long amount of time then there really isn't the possibility of dirt getting into the loose filter...so I would simply top it up to the full line.



What's this about fuel filter...? Did you want to know when you should change your fuel filter too? If so, this can largely depend on the quality of gas you are getting for your car...it's pretty common to replace a fuel filter every 60,000km - 100,000km (or 40,000m - 60,000miles)How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?
Oil need to be change based on oil type u have use, more good oil quality as synthetic oil will be more longer to ur next oil change. And oil filter need to be change for every 10000 km and if u change ur oil type and or brand, evasive unlucky reaction from the chemical in the oil. For ur case, if ur last service has include oil changing, then u only need to add same oil to F level.How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?
If you are ever unsure do the safest and cleanest option available, IE change your oil. Then write down your mileage and put that in the glove box. You should change regular oil every 3 months or 5,000 miles and for synthetic blends change every 4 or 5 months or 6,000+ miles.How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?
unless you drive under extreme conditions (dust, high heat, heavy traffic, extreme cold, towing) you should only need to change your oil every 8000km. just refill it and keep track of the level, but don't worry about it.How frequent I should change my car oil and fuel filter?
