Haven't done it. Use the maintenance minder and wait til its at 15%...but be warned oil change and weight topics all across the internet usually devolve into all sorts of conspiracy theories, name calling, accusations, bans, etc. No seriously...oil is almost like bringing up politics and religion at your workplace...enter at your own peril

Going to do mine at 5k miles, car has about 3500 now. Going to do MTF change at the same time as well, planning to use Amsoil 0w20 (w/ Honda OEM filter) and Amsoil Synchromesh.

And its guys like you who are trying to get the absolute maximum life out of they're oil; you guys are always the ones to get upset about oil threads hehehe. That stuff will be like 0W10 @ 15% life lol, to each his own! Ive changed mine 3 times in 3 months, 12k miles.
