Agree … My last 3 BMWs had the 10K interval. Last August I brought my car in when the check engine light went on. The cause was quickly diagnosed as gas cap not correctly on. While there, I was told I am due for an oil change even at only 7 months and 7837 miles.

I assume this was the reason, but I certainly don’t constantly push the car hard. I didn’t see any notice or warning it was due. Now I am due August 2023 or 6,002 miles. I am currently at 13,313 which would be 11,478 miles after first one.
