It has been my understanding that an engine should have 7k mileage on conventional motor oil before switching over to a synthetic. Now, the manufacturers info states that this is not necessary. So which is correct? I switched over after putting 10k on my Tacoma.

You can go synth for your 1st oil change if you like.

My tacoma went to synthetic at 1000 miles I have just over 8K on it now I see no problems.
I think most manufacturers prefer you to wait for the first 2K, I know my civic owners man. said to hold off until after 2K they say there engines have a break in oil.
Everything else I bought in the last few years, and I have bought quite a few, said nothing about waiting, the honda was the only car I waited on.
