    The manual just has different maintenance intervals (like 5000 and 7500). It's the oil you use that determines life.

    The oil filter says 15,000 miles, and the oil says 10,000. There was also a 15,000-mile version of the oil, though it wasn't "high mileage" so I figured 10,000 was good enough lol.

    How often does your light come on? Is it programmable for certain intervals?

    No it's just set at 100% and counts down by 10. Not sure what rate it's at.
    But considering its programmed by Honda I would assume that's the best recommended oil change interval.

    Thanks Press!

    Alright guys, I'm getting ready to head out on a road trip first thing in the morning.

    2000 miles and 34 hours of driving :p

    [IMG]

    Driving down to Florida for the Sibling Rivalry 8 (SR8) meet with the CorollaCarClub (CCC). Then heading back the long way !!!

    I had a bit too much fun with some tape, though it might not last that long because it doesn't stick to the wax so well :/

    Well I had a great trip, only to come back and find TRDforums gone AGAIN.

    The tape held up perfectly, and the car ran like a champ all 2000 miles.
