This car uses 9 quarts, which is almost twice the amount of most cars. The oil lasts longer b/c there is more of it circulating. A change at 3 K is a waste unless you are tracking the car. But to each there own. It never hurts to be overly cautious I suppose. Kind of like asking how often does everybody wash their car? You will get all sorts of different answers.

is it really better to do it before 10k? I figured the car burns so much oil, you in add some oil its kinda like an oil change in itself.
I changed my first oil at 10k, but might do it more often if you guys really think its worth it.

I changed my oil 3 times in 2 years of ownership... once at 1 000km, another at 3 000km & the recent one at 5 500km... what a waste, gotta drive my car more now 'cuz I'm flushing barely used oil. LOL
