Sounds perfect for a healthy motor. both mine do roughly the same.

You should change the oil at 5K IMHO, and if you are pressed with time the best to do would be to wait until the min oil mark, change out the filter only and top off with a liter of oil. At that point, I would say do a max of another 2K kilometers. Then change it all out incl filter again.

If high mileage is in order you have the option to run synthetic, been contemplating it myself for a long long time, but not yet.
