I'm borderline anal when it comes to taking care of my cars, but will always follow the recommendations of the manufacturer before some random lab test.
And to those of you who are changing oil every 3-5k (and using synthetic presumably) - that's a waste. Quality synthetic oil is fine for well beyond that.
