The Fit has been available in North America for over 2 1/2 years and the rest of the world for over 7 years, therefore many have done their first oil change. I did mine over 2 years ago, about 6,700 miles, 15% on the maintenance minder. Done myself, so no extras from the stealership. Beware of overpriced and unnecessary service from stealerships.

I'm about to have my first oil change this week. I have about 5,500 miles right now.
