I would personally change the oil every 5000 miles if you're keeping the car. I never liked the long oil intervals BMW has set out because every car is driven in different conditions.

For example,my car sits in the garage for a good 3-4 months during the winter plus I barely drive 5000 miles in a year so I can't imagine getting a oil change every 2 years. Also over time the oil's viscosity drops as dirt and gas get mixed so again imagine the condition of your oil after 10k.
