I change or test my AMSOIL Series 2000 0W-30 every year--which normally amounts to about 10,000 miles. I have run oil analysis and know I'm throwing away good oil, but that's OK. I'd probably run Mobil 1 for that long, changing oil filter at 6 months.
I use AMSOIL oil filters. If I couldn't get them, I'd use Mobil 1 oil filter.
Yes, change it. Over the past 24 years,I've change probably hundreds of cars to synthetic with over 60K on them. I'd use a good engine flush first (AMSOIL or BG). If you don't, or won't, flush, then the synthetic will clean the engine for you. Plan to change the oil filter after a couple of thousand miles, and you might then drop the first batch after 3-4,000 miles.
