Check your owners manual. There should be a procedure for 'bringing up' the time/distance until the next service on the display.

Oil Changes (Service A/B) are to be completed every 13k miles, or 1 year - whichever comes first. Your car will yell at you when its time, telling you XXX miles until Service A/B, with a countdown, etc.

PS - Don't forget to squeeze in tire rotations every 6500 miles ;-)

Looks like he has a luxury model, which is not staggard and can be rotated. The Sport models can't...unless you get non directional tires. Then you can rotate side to side to keep them from getting too noisy with age.
