OIL / Filter @ 4000 MILES. 6 months

'2nd' Service @ 8000 miles (12 months), all depends on what you want and how you drive it, Some intervals are 3750 for harsh driving, & 7500, others 7500 for regular driving, some 4500 / 9000 or 9000, after 5000 miles when the engine is generally well 'seated' you can't change the oil too often!!(But it costs!, I buy my own oil and get Honda dealer to do the work / stamp the book).

Had the run in oil changed at 3500 miles (shell helix semi) then had it changed again at 8000 miles and used Mobil 1. Since running Mobil I have experienced no oil loss.

Is that the WAP Mobile I prefer the regular Mobil 1, you can pay for it up front, no monthly contract
