Default Oil Maintenance alert comes on every 3000 miles

Hello,

I noticed my last three Oil Maintenance warnings came at the 3000 mark (2010 GS 350). I figured this was due to my low amount of driving and that there was a time calculation factored in. However, being that 5k is the only rule, does anyone know why I am getting this message?
My last oil change was in June @ 63k.
I'm now at 66K.
Below is how my oil is looking:

Thanks,

No, 5k is not the only rule!! It should be 5k or 6 months, whichever comes first.

You have to go in the maintenance menu of the navigation and delete the reminder. Then set it to the miles and date that you would like to get the reminder. Whichever one comes first.

Hmmm.. I called the dealership the other day and was told 5k was definitely the only rule. I'll have to look into this further.

Will do, once I find out the interval rule(s).
