When should I change the oil in my Audi R8?

I just bought an Audi R8 and am wondering when I should schedule an oil change. Should I follow a specific schedule or wait until I receive a notification from the car's computer? Are there any signs I should look out for that indicate it's time for an oil change?

A general rule of thumb for oil changes is every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. However, for a high-performance car like the Audi R8, it's recommended to change the oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. It's better to err on the side of caution with a car like this.

Another factor to consider is the type of driving you do. If you frequently drive your Audi R8 at high speeds or in extreme weather conditions, you may need to change the oil more often. It's always a good idea to check the owner's manual for specific guidelines.

As for the notification from the car's computer, it's best to not rely on it entirely. The computer may not take into account your specific driving habits and may not alert you when it's really necessary for an oil change. It's always better to be proactive and stick to a regular maintenance schedule.
