Okay, now I get it. In Canada we are somewhat metric.
I interpreted the 6,000 oil/filter change to be km, whereas it should be 6,000 miles or approx 10,000 km.
Thank you so much as I was about to do another oil/filter chance. So far, I have changed the oil and filter at 1,000 km 7,000 km 13,000 km and 19,000 km. I just passed 25.,000 km (not bad for one year?). So, my next change will be around the 28-29k area.
Much appreciated.

Even Mobil 1 advises the same thing, 15,000 miles OR 12 months. With my Jeep, I hit the time before the mileage.
I think I will change at 10,000 km intervals for oil and filter changes along with the pumpkin fluid.

I used to change my pumpkin oil at the same time as oil and filter changes, until I went over to fully synthetic diff oil, which was coming out looking like it’d just gone in. Diff oil every other oil and filter change now.
