6k is ideal.. so yeah 5k-6k. My 23 civic maintenance light came up between 5k-6k and i had like 15 % left on it
I got my 93 Accord up to 333,000 miles changing oil at 7500 miles, using the cheap synthetic blend Walmart crap, and engine failure isn't what killed the car. When I pulled the head at 250,000 miles to do a head gasket, the cylinders still had the cross hatching from the factory hone so I'm gonna say 7500 miles was plenty often enough. Changing oil more often than required is nothing but wasting money and buys you nothing in terms of reliability or longevity.
2013 Accord V6... I change it every 7500 with full synthetic. Anyone changing before 5k is wasting their money.
I used to do it every 3k cuz I was pro overkill, then 5k, now I just do it when the car tells me to. So around 20% oil life
I do mine every 7k. 240k on my 2010 honda accord no issues. And 190 2016 honda accord no issues. And the 2016 has the weak oil rings.
ive had my 15 civic SI since march of 15. ive changed it every 5k and never had an issue with it. oil is cheap, engines and major repairs are expensive. id rather waste 50$ on an extra oil change or 2 a year, then need a 5k motor replacement.
I do mine every 5k on my 2010 Honda Accord 2.4L with synthetic oil. Engine oil is much cheaper than an entire engine.
I go 6k miles on my 2020 passport (Mobil 1 syn. and Wix syn. oil filter). I also rotate my tires at the same time. Change intervals are debatable. The cost is negligible to me in exchange for knowing I have fresh oil and a filter on my rig. Further, I plan on keeping this vehicle for 10 to 12 more years so engine longevity without issues is very important to me. Besides, I would rather error on changing too soon vs. going too long. Peace of mind.
its really only an issue on track if youre running sticky tires. running 0.5-1.0qt overfill seems to be a decent solution on track
I mistakenly put 0w20 in ~1000 miles ago, and though my engine hasn't fallen out while I driving I've seen ~5-10% loss in mpgs and it's a little louder than it was with 0w16.
