So, it's all good - completed the oil change and got them to change the oil filter because it's the first oil change. I didn't want any possibly whatsoever of debris from assembly clogging up the filter. If it's not in the pan on the magnet, it's in the filter, so best to change it first service IMO.
I had an odd issue I have never had before where there is a scoring noise when turning and it's worse when it's cold and damp. This is my first car with electric steering, so I wasn't sure was going on. There have been electric steering issues similar to this that are with the steering itself, but it turns out it was just the front backing plates - it's warranty, so no big deal. They adjusted them and it's fine.
For the sake of record and if anyone wonders, the mileage was 12,354 KMS over almost exactly 7-months (3-days shy) and the Maintenance Minder Oil Life was 15%. Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection was perfect, with tread depths after tire rotation of LF 8.5/32nds; RF 8.5/32nds; LR 8/32nds; RR 8/32nds. Tire pressures were all 35 PSI.
I feel super lazy now that I do nothing to my car except was it, put gas and washer fluid in it, with the exception of weekly oil and fluid checks. I don't even check the tire pressure anymore because they're nitrogen filled - I just inspect the wear of the tires now to determine if they're under-pressure.
I hope everyone's enjoying their CivicXs, relatively issue-free and have good service experiences. So far, so good with me.
Ciao!
