BMW has been doing the computer directed/recommended oil change thing for years. My son was told not to expect the oil service reminder to come on until after 15000 miles. It came on at 17000. He now has over 250000 miles on the car and has performed all oil changes whenever the computer said to do it, usually up around 15-18000. To satisfy warranty requirements, the oil must be on BMW's oil list (Mobil I is OK) and you must use the BMW oil filter. BMW will do this for free through the warranty period which is 60000 miles. My new Tundra recommends oil and filter changes at 5000 miles using conventional oil and 10000 using synthetic oil although those intervals are cut in half when in "severe service" Toyota performs this free of charge for the first 25000. US Army determined many years ago that they were changing engine oil far too frequently. Although they now use spectrum analysis to determine engine oil change intervals.
