OFFICIAL OIL THREAD (Trying to clean up all these useless oil threads)

[DLSTR]

Dont. Drive it and make sure you get it warm when you do drive. You will not see any performance advantage to changing it. You sound like you are a once or twice a year guy. Warranty is not an issue in terms of changes. Just make sure you use the recommended oil. We use 15000km changes here in Germany. Its the same motor. Driving conditions matter much more than time. Dusty, harsh or lots of stop and go require a bit more frequent changes.

With so little driving id be much more concerned about flat spotted tires and water intrusion into your brake fluid. When you do change it go with synthetic without question. The car deserves it and the motor will warm this oil quite easily under loaded/performance conditions. Never ever use cheap oil.
