EJ22 Subaru Legacy using M1 FS 0w40. Just changed the oil last week.
I steam cleaned the interior and overwet the floor carpeting. Due to cold and wet weather and lack of a warm garage, my only option to dry the carpets was to idle the car with the heat blasting. I estimate I probably idled it for 10 hours total, split across 3 different sessions, started from cold each time, and I didn't drive it around so it ran cold for a while each time.
I usually change every 3k. I drive a combination of city and highway, short and long trips.
Will my 10 extra hours of idling, plus the extra time spent running the engine cold with no load change anything, given my vehicle and OCI?
