With the Mini S you have (I am assume its new enough to be under warranty and is the turbo not the SC model) You really should change the oil every 5k even if you have to pay for the in between oil changes. Those cars have a bad problem of using oil and tearing up the timing chain tensioner too. The stealership we get our parts from will not warranty the timing chain tensioner if the car is a quart low on oil when it comes in. Just a FYI for ya. Sorry for thread hijack. /me stepping off my soap box.
