I went to the honda dealer this morning to get my first oil change for my ep and the service clerk said that i did not need one till 5k because of the break in period. Yet the sticker on my windshield said "first oil change 3750 miles". I don't know what to think. Also my car will be in the shop for a week due to the grinding in third, grinding passenger window, clicking clutch, and clicking passenger shock. I figured we would get better quality for a $21,000 car.

But I bet they can spell "Damn," "sucks," "can't," and "assemble."

Ouch! Low blow! I just got my 5K service done at 4,670 miles. Funny though, they said that the new Hondas are good for 10,000 miles between oil changes on mostly highway driving!! Imagine that, waiting 10,000 miles for an oil change - why don't I just put a bullet in her block now and save her the suffering!

YEAP!!! Thats 21k American dollars my friend. He actually got his for 21,200 and I got mine for 21,400. How do i know you ask. Because Im his brother. I got mine the first day it arrived at the dealer here in the United states and he got his a month and a half afterwards. I got my oil changed at 3000 miles.

I'm about at 4k and I'm bouta get my checkup... Hey, I don't really understand why your prices were 21ish... someone said that it was USD? I got mine just under 18, and if I had waited til now, I could get like 17... well, I suppose the person was just really anxious to get it.

first oil change at 3750, from there after, you can change as frequent as you like. exactly what the mechanic at the H dealer said. it doesn't take a genius to figure it out, the harder you run the car, the more frequent the oil change should be done. oil is the car's blood.
