[s-cars] Which oil/oil filter for UrS4

[jpb3]

While I am ceertainly  no engineer I would have a hard time leaving an oil
filter on for 10K miles.  IMO the filter is more important to change than
todays syn oils at  5K intervals.  I have no data to back anything up but to
me skipping filter changes is not a wise practice to do.  Especially on a
forced induction motor.
