After the 1,200 mile service the oil interval starts to kick in. From the 1,200 mile service the car will call for an oil change anywhere between 6k and 12k miles of driving depending on the driving style and habits (or once every year, whichever comes first). The average is 10k. Prior, the average was 15k and it ranged between 12k and 18k. The reason for the reduction was due to many people complaining that the interval was too long in between oil changes.
