You did notice... I'm using the word percentage and not miles, right?
I'll stick with doing all my maintenance 10 percent early. Oil sent in to be checked about once a year for me.
I am not concerned with what you prefer to do. I am just saying that I disagree with the "10% rule" that this Cummins engineer told you and that you are recommending based on actual oil analysis data.
Also, 10% from 15k miles is 13.5k miles, If there is no significant difference or from 10k to 15k miles like I stated earlier, then why would there be from 13.5k to 15k?

(side note) being you see oil testing results...seeing any results in the new oil spec yet? Spec "K" or whatever they are naming it.
There may be some, but the customers do not specify which standard the oil being tested is whether it is CJ-4, CK-4 or FA-4. Many times they just put the brand and grade of the oil being tested. We only test oil contamination, dilution, and flash point.
