Miles only applies for US. All other countries use metric system which means KM .
Not Malaysia is outdated, is you are misinformed. The reason why some cars can go 10000 miles is because they have a much bigger oil pan and bigger oil filter. Japanese engines for 2.0L needs around 4L of engine oil. German cars that can do 10000 miles with same displacement need ~50% more engine oil.
Anyways , engine is very expensive. Oil is cheap . Why risk damaging the engine with prolonged oil change?
Miles is a system that Malaysia use too but very little. We call batu. Kalau tak tau jangan la buat pandai. Yes that was my whole point, our manufacturers stuck at 10k km when others already 16,000 km interval. Nah siap bagi conversation hepi tak.
Honda UK specify 12,500 miles as interval. Same engines car models as Malaysia, same engine oils same filters. Your information is the one that's outdated.
https://www.honda.co.uk/cars/faqs.html#headingoneThere is no so called risk of damaging with prolonged oil change when everything is done as recommended by manufacturer. Only outdated mechanics say things like this, because they no new knowledge, therefore they scared. Buat keje kena update knowledge, kalau tak malu jadi jaguh kampung je.
