Have been trying to keep this vehicle on a every April & October change schedule. Usually this results in a ~6,000 mile OCI. This time it was only 4553 miles with MM light at 40%, but changed it anyway. If the October change has similarly low miles I will have to rethink the schedule but I would really like to avoid the garage floor in January.
Usage is at least 90% city. Most trips are 10-20 minutes in length, had plenty of idling through this past (very cold) winter. OEM filter, and Honda 0w-20. Replaced with the same.
