To be honest, I think 6 month is pretty overkill. I'm very particular regarding oil changes with my S65 (which is known for rod bearing issues) and always send in oil samples. I almost never reach the mileage, but do change it once a year usually, and the oil always comes back squeaky clean. Unless you're doing a lot of short trips, then maybe that would make sense.

Good to know. I do about 7k miles a year, so not huge numbers, but not a garage queen either.
