Does you car came with a manual?

Change intervals and oil is specified on the owners manual.

it probably does say and isn't recommended for atleast 100,000 miles(km?). It never hurts to change it and if you drive hard its a good thing.

kitt if you drive normal, cruising most the time but getting on the throttle sometimes your still good, id wait til 100,000km if i were you....

if you drive it hard, id give it a few thousand km's while you research parts(filter, fluid) and what exactly needs to be done and change it....

either way i think you still got another year to 2 years before you should have to......
