I feel oil changes, aside from the recommended 7,500, should be done more frequently if the car is driven harder. As others have mentioned, I do not see why an engine should explode if someone went 1,000 miles over their recommended oil change, unless they were driving the car hard since the last oil change. My car sees 7,000 RPM about 1-2 times a week, if that and I am just doing the standard, 7,500 mile oil change. Got the car back in September 2012 and the manufacture date is June 2012. Currently at 16,600 miles and no issues *knocks on wood*
