[s-cars] Oil analysis

The oil analysis that I have been using is not all that precise.  Changing
the filter more often does seem to make more intuitive sense.  I have seen a
mobil one filter designed for the 15000 changes.  Any one have experience?

I have actually heard it more common going the other way around - run 10,000
miles between oil changes but change the filter at 5,000.

As to whether this is a good practice, I cannot say.  Spend $20 for an oil
analysis at 5,000 mi and than again at 10,000 mi and see for yourself.
