2008, I think current mileage around 10K now.

1. No...I go right away.
2. Petro Can 91.
3. Changed oil once...synthetic oil? dunno...I think only change oil in every 15K or 20K?
4. wax once.....

It seems that there are some differences regarding the oil change schedule between Japanese car and European car. My car is "supposed" to service in 15K or once a year. Is it just design difference? Would it be better to change the oil more frequently (as it gets older)? I drove highway most of the time and about 30K per weekday. Thanks!

My car is 2008 w204. to/from work are both against traffic. time is around 15 minutes one trip (1 trip is about 13K). Now 10K la...I think now the indicator will prompt me for service once a year or every 15K. But my old W202...prompts me for service almost once every 2 years. Same "driving" habit wor... I am thinking I could have done a bit better to my old car so I can be kept longer. So now, I don't want to repeat any "mistake" (if there was any) as I did before. Hope this car can be driven as long as it can.

Both old and new cars are 6 cylinder. My old car had lots of problems ... The transmission suddenly got stuck @ a gear that speed can't go high on the highway! I was so scared ar!  At the 8th or 9th year the catalyst converter is broken. And I don't even drive fast or aggressive. And no accident wor... (scratch the side..but not even bumper to bumper thing or anything...). And it's not gas efficient as I mentioned before...I hope the new one would be better. So far it's doing good.

I was debating E90 or W204 ... but then W204 seems a better deal (more features like blue tooth...), and more appealing look...so...
I do hope it is better than before la... I want to keep >10 yrs ga....
