I always thought that our cars had to be oil changed every 10k miles with M1 synthetic, but I thought that going over by a couple thousand miles wasnt too bad, until I heard that we should actually be changing it around 5-6k?? not sure.
But... what can be a result of me not changing my oil for such a long time? Anything I should check up on?

12,000 miles is much different if it is 12,000 1-mile trips with the oil never getting warmed verses 6 months of 50 miles a day trips with the oil getting hot and cleaning itself and the engine. Do OC intervals according to time. 3x a year is good. Every 6 months is not as good.
