Correct. At the time our cars were made, BMW actually recommended 15,000 mile intervals, which they later retracted because that's simply too long if you want a long life out of your engine/turbos (if equipped). With any modern synthetic oil, 7,500 miles is pretty standard and is a safe OCI even without doing blackstone analysis testing. Many have found though, that even at 7,500 miles, their oil was still in pretty good shape. The way I see it, oil is cheap insurance so I stick to approximately that interval.
