    Hi
    The 5-20 that they use in the civic , is it regular oil or semi-synthetic.
    Follwing the maintenance indicator, by the time it comes down to 15% the
    mileage on the oil is alreay around 7500 km. This make me nervous if it is
    regular oil.

    Semi-syn.

    You can always change the oil much more often if you like. That mileage
    minder is a *maximum*.

    Why? It's well within standard oil industry specs.

    nervous? where are you getting your information from? you can be
    assured that the engineers that wrote the oil mileage software
    algorithms knew just a leeeeetle bit more about your honda than the
    marketing monkeys over at iffy lube.
