Yup. I had checked with Castrol and Shell, their comment is between 10,000 mile to 15,000 mile or up to 1 year. Which mean, I currently using Castrol Edge, I can last 24,000 km. But the workshop just paste a sticker, mine next 10k. I think if I change lousy oil, will also 10k/km, good brand also 10k. There just want to made more $$$$$$$.

Anyway, I just concern those normal car user. Is it the workshop didn’t understand and just simple paste the standard mileage to oil change or Singaporean is kaisu? As for me, I change around 2k to 3k depend after my oil test and gauge pressure and temp.
