vol 940,
Is it advisable to change every 5k instead of 10k? I've been using Mobil1
all this while and change every 10k but last service change to Shell fully
synthetic.

iza,
For fully synthetic you can go up to 7,000 km. Fully synthetic doesn't
mean 100% synthetic, coz 100% synthetic cant lubricate the engine, though
withstands at higher temperature. Fully synthetic consists of 85%
synthetic base oil and 15% additive mixed with mineral based oil in order
to get the optimum lubrication. When the 15% additive+mineral based oil
breakdown the lubrication capability will drop. Considering that your
driving style can give smoke to Turbo Lim, so better you change at 7,000
km as a maximum, good for your engine at the long run.
