Do yourself a favour and get the oil tested, either send it to "lubrication management" in dandenong or find another good mob to test it for you.
Last time I was there for an oil check I travelled 5000km on 98, 3000km on E85 and the oil was still good for at least another 2000km - on a turbo engine that gets pushed pretty often. Not wearing out and barely holding together, but specifically "good aka fully functional for at least another 2000km". $60 of your cash and you'll know and we'll know the rough life expectancy of your oil for the H6 on corn. Maybe some of you H6 owners want to chip in for the test?
3000km on an N/a that's not a track car might start to sound silly once you get the test results back, more cash in your pocket down the track
Not worried about how long the oil lasts, or the $$, its more just a habit that i’ve done oil changes every 5k since i’ve owned the car! (done 50k).
I like knowing that its running on nice fresh oil. Especially since the car gets hammered often!
It would be interesting getting it tested though, just for future reference.
