Ferrari Mailing List: Re: New vehicle oil change

[Britt2asa (britt2asa]

I change at 10-12k miles. Been running BMW’s with dealership servicing for 15 
years with no problems. BMW here says 10-12k for changes so that’s what I do. 
Manufacturing in the past 50 years has changed hugely, 3000 miles changes are 
entirely unnecessary and an utter waste of money on anything built in the past 
15 years. Even in the mid 90’s changes on GM (Opel) products was 8k. I had a 
fleet of 3000 cars and we always filled the factory intervals. Just read the 
manual and follow it.
