Good morning everyone,
2019 Sport, 8500ish miles, 2.0, Maintenance minder at 15%
Went to dealership yesterday for what I thought was free 1st service. Service receptionist asks if I want my tires rotated for $20. I declined. Only the oil change is free, I learned. Then he says I should have gotten my oil changed at 5000 miles and that I shouldnât be going by what the car says.
To me, with the oil life at 15%, I felt like I was doing the oil change slightly early. After the receptionist was done with me I felt like a bad parent at a kids 1st doctors visit.
I follow the maintenance minder for my wifeâs 2016 Pilot and will do the same with this Civic. Also, I do 10,000 mile oil changes on my 2012 Tundra and did them for 16 years on my 03 Jetta.
