#302 of 345 Oil Life on a 2008 Civic Lx by xxy Aug 21, 2008 (4:43 pm)
Just wondering my Civic has reached 5500 miles and the oil life indicates it is at 40% of it's life. I thought I was suppose to get an oil change at 5000 miles. Should I not be concerned and let the oil change indicator to come on and then take it in for service. Just seems like it has been at 40% since it turned 4000 miles. By the way took a 500 mile interstate drive today and got 41.5 mpg, very impressed. Replies to this message: thegraduate (Aug 21, 2008 8:14 pm) jet10000 (Aug 22, 2008 3:13 pm)

Replying to: xxy (Aug 21, 2008 4:43 pm) If you take more highway trips than average, and do little city "stop and go" driving, you should see close to 10,000 miles before your Oil Life Indicator tells you to get an oil change. Don't fret!

I've been averaging about 7,500 miles before I hit 15% (the recommended percentage to get service.)

I got a new Honda Civic 08 EX coupe and the low tire pressure light came on. I looked at the tired and tested it and everything was normal.   Anyone have a similar problem with the indicator? Replies to this message: jet10000 (Sep 22, 2008 12:25 pm)

Replying to: robx615 (Sep 20, 2008 10:40 pm) What pressure did you measure the tire at? Look at the door to see the proper pressure that your car needs to be inflated to. It may be higher than you think.
#307 of 345 another recall on the 07's..... by nsteevo Sep 23, 2008 (9:07 am)
"Product Update: Water Pump Pulley Bolts May Lose Tension" 06 and 07, if you haven't gotten one of these in the mail you'd better call the dealer. It seems the water pump pulley bolts can come loose and cause the drive belt to break. I am really glad that Honda is taking care of this for me. However, this is the third or fourth item that has been recalled since my purchase of my Civic a year ago. It is a sad thing in this day and age (technologies, education of designers and manufacturers, computers etc.) to have brand new cars having problems like this. This is the oposite of the long enjoyed reputation of Japanese automobiles of years gone by not having repairs to speak of for many years of ownership......even when the vehicle was abused and not maintained. Japanese quality WAS Japanese manufactured and assembled.....100%. Honda and Toyota have sadly watered down their product quality by getting American ANYTHING involved in the production and/or design of their vehicles.
#308 of 345 Water Pump by sandman46 Sep 23, 2008 (2:03 pm)
Had it done after receiving a recall notice in the mail. Also had the rear suspension problem taken care of at the same time. With the Lug bug issue and the brake seals issue already addressed, guess that should be it. Still love the car but don't want to see the dealer any time soon...lol!   The Sandman Replies to this message: thegraduate (Sep 23, 2008 3:12 pm)

Replying to: sandman46 (Sep 23, 2008 2:03 pm) Not a sandman specific question here...   But,   My folks have a 2007 Civic EX Sedan, early build probably (Jan 2007 purchase). Would it possibly be included?
