Does an Acura TSX (Accord Euro R) count?

This may only benefit one other member, but I wanted to post what I found for the 9th generation Accord service manual. As far as I can tell, there isn't a paper version of it and this is the best option.

Do you follow the car computer's oil life calculations for change intervals?

Yes, because amsoil. . Also, because of my driving conditions (non-extreme). I will be doing an oil analysis for confirmation. The S, however, gets changes by 3k, or earlier, based on driving conditions.

Since you are an expert chef, I'll take your word for it.

Ok. I'll be using Mobil 1 or Castrol Edge after the first oil change, so maybe I'll try a more conventional approach until I've done more research.
