Oil Change (frequency?)

with today's oil technology 5k intervals is perfectly fine. just check your oil regularly. my dealer has the same policy on my allroad.. it goes in for service every 5000 miles

Thanks for your message. Please allow me to clarify / make sure I understand. So - - you suggest / follow a 5,000 mile service interval? (My dealer / Audi, under new car coverage, will only do this every 10,000 miles, starting at 5,000 - - so, 5K, 15K, 25K, 35K, 45K).

If I read your note correctly, sounds like I should spring for the "in-between" changes (10K, 20K, 30K, 40K), so that the synthetic oil / filter are changed *every* 5K miles. . .

Does that sound right?

Thanks!
