Re: Oil Change
With synthetic and "normal" driving DON'T go over 10,000KM... the harder your driving is, the sooner you MUST change your oil... I use Mobil 5W40 synthetic and an AUDI filter every time!

Re: Oil Change
Either that or his blinker fluid needs to be changed ASAP if he is letting the oil stay in there for that long :P
I'd say change based on your driving style, the harder you drive the more often you should change. I personally don't let it go over 7k without a change. Its an easy DIY even with the most limited of tools.
