That's my point. With the low mileage the OP drives, he needs to change the oil once a year and not when the MM says (which would be well over 12 months). I think there are other things to do if you have very low annual mileage.

 

Sorry, I thought we were both talking about this guy.

 

I always just change when the dash says to!

 

Change it every 12 months or when the little wrench light comes on. It is imperative that you use 0w-20w oil as that is what Honda calls for don't let some knuckle head put 5w-30 conventional oil in there - its bad for it- and use a good filter not a 3 dollar cheapie I use the from ultraguard it says its good for 15k miles and my mm doesn't usually come on til after 11k so you want a good filter, I recommend doing it yourself, other people don't care about your car as much as you, don't assume they know best, educate yourself and stay away from the quick service places they're just going to sell you junk you don't need. 0w-20 from Walmart (its the Mobil full syn fuel economy) is like 25 bucks the filter is like 10 and you can do it yourself in 30-60 minutes and know its right, I make copies of my receipts and staple it in my book- done
