It isn't necessary to do an oil change for 7000 miles. Its basically wasteful if you do it way less than that.

Americans don't know what a km is, let alone how many of them until an oil change.
Plus, I bet half the dudes in here are changing their oil every 10K miles and wonder why their car acts up on them
