So, I've been waiting for my maintenance minder to indicate that I need my first oil change. I had vacation coming up, and since I've had the car since May 26, 2018, I've watched it tick down to what I assumed was 10,000 miles. So since I know what I usually drive in a week, I figured I would be right around 8600 miles and should be close enough to needing my oil changed. For the most part, the oil life has gone down around 10% for every 1000 miles. I'm now a bit over 8800 miles and I'm still sitting at 20% oil life. If I can get the maintenance minder light on, the oil change is free under my Honda care plan. Is it just basing the oil life on time?
