The most recent recommendations from individuals rebuilding engines suggest if you plan to keep the car over 80,000 mi, changing the oil & filter at 5,000 miles, particularly for smaller (2L) and any turbocharged vehicles.

This is due to the high turbo temperatures and smaller oil passages in those engines.

To the OP, Sumter Tire seemed popular in previous threads.
