How often should I change the oil in my Vauxhall Corsa?

I recently purchased a used Vauxhall Corsa and I'm not sure how often I should get the oil changed. Can you provide some recommendations and advice?

The oil in your Vauxhall Corsa should be changed every 12,000 miles or every 12 months, whichever comes first. This will help maintain the performance and longevity of your vehicle's engine. It's also a good idea to check your oil levels regularly and top up as needed.

If you frequently drive in stop-and-go traffic or have a lot of short trips, you may want to change your oil more frequently, around every 6,000 miles. This type of driving can put extra strain on the engine and cause your oil to degrade faster.

In addition to regular oil changes, make sure to follow the recommended maintenance schedule for your Vauxhall Corsa. This includes checking and replacing other fluids, such as transmission and brake fluids, as needed.
