Yeah, that was expressively told to me by a few of a local car club of what not to do. Too long between changes.
Hate to say but that makes me feel better.
Very few and far between with those who stick to sub 5-6k oil changes.
Sorry.
BMW no longer prescribes 15K mile oil changes. My G30 5-Series issues 6800 mile intervals or 12 months max, whichever comes first.
