The first oil change.

The first oil change.

I changed the engine oil of my Accord for the first time. I tried to change it after 4,000 miles, but the dealer told me tha I do not need to change until the oil life indicator said 15% left which came after 7,000 miles.

The oil was 0w20. I have never heard of such a light oil but that is what the specification called for. I selected Mobile 1 full synthetic for my car since I will not be changing for another 7,000 miles.

With the coupon I got from my sales person, I got $20 off and the cost was under $70 for that. Also Mobile 1 came with $20 mail in rebate for next oil change. it was a great deal.

I did my old change at Lynnwood Honda where I purchased my car.
