Thank You very much for Your reply.
I fully agree with You, it is a little bit of perfectionism. I used to do it + few more like a shorter oil change interval (8000-10000km), because a few people around me, did it too, and their cars pay back with many hundrets of thousands troubleless and power constant kilometres. I change my car every 7-10 years, so I did what I could to maximise health of my cars.
