just bought an 07 550i and was planning on using full synthetic oil and everyone has "their brand' they love so i'm sure that dead horse has been beaten to death i'm wondering how many miles people choose to do before changing oil.

Yes i know if you live in NY city and drive all day in traffice might want to change more often just talk about average day to day tavels back and fourth to work kinda stuff or mixed driving

8000 miles oil change interval (per CBS). Use BMW or BMW recommended engine oils

I have always changed my oil between 8000 and 10000. Now that I am over 100000m I change it at 7000.
