i have said it before, i think oil changes should be measured by RPMs not miles. I believe this is how Hondas oil metering works, the computer counts the engine revolutions and when it reaches a certain number the "change oil" reminder starts blinking. I saw a Honda truck go over 10k miles before the reminder turned on, and Honda stood behind it. They said change the oil only when the truck tells you to.
I change my oil (mobil 1) every six months but i only drive 10k miles a year. Last time i had it changed, the oil came out a nice gold color, and it was still transluscent.
