In my case, Nissan Ester oil at every 5k. Is it too late to change?

Change oil change interval (OCI)? Are you doing it every 5K miles or kms? If you're doing it every 5K miles and wanting to switch to 7500 kms, that is equivalent to ~4660 miles; you might as well stick to 5K miles. If you're doing it every 5K kms, then you could probably go a little longer. If you really want to know what OCI you should be using, then your best solution is to send in a sample of your oil to Blackstone for a used oil analysis (UOA). They will tell you how often you should be changing your oil based on the actual oil you use.

This video explains why if you really love your car you will drive it. No car can have a soul unless it's driven hard and often.

I have yet to have any major problems with it. I take it in about every 20k miles to get everything checked over at my local Nissan dealer (oil and trans flush on my last visit) surprisingly there are a few guys there that know their stuff and are not trying to rip me off or make me buy something every time i go up there.
