I have been told on the Element site, that Honda calls for OCI up to 10K, & changing of the filter every OTHER oil change...
Sorry... Not gonna happen for me. Not the 10K OCI, nor the 20K on the filter.
I plan Royal Purple synthetic oil, and Mobil 1 filters @ 7,500.
I am open to thoughts on the subject, though I personally think filters are cheap peace-of-mind. They ARE there for a reason, right>???
