TD42 Service Intervals

Hi,
At the moment I'm averaging just over 1000km's per month; as a result I end up servicing the car about every 3000km's. Would there be any issues with leaving the servicing to every 5000km's and disregarding the 3 monthly service interval?

Cheers,
David

3000 is very regularly.. You could almost sell the oil!

5000 is extreme to some people... but lookin at Nicks engine after 560,000klms of 5000 interval its fine.

10,000 is what some think is normal..

I do 5-7500klms oil and filters.
