Continuing to do business with thieves is generally not a good idea.

 

I don't think you've read your manual or understand the function of the "dash light." Read the manual and report back.

 

I think 3k oil changes in a modern vehicle is wasteful and unnecessary. I use the maintenance minder, honda designed it for their vehicles, i change between 5-10 percent. If the car blows the motor before 150k,then ill probably not buy another honda but given how many 80 something civics are out there limping up and down the road I'm not worried

 

One thing people think is the AC smells or climate syem smells are fixed by a cabin filter but they are not. The cabin filter only filters the incoming air from outside and is before the blower. It doesn't change the smell coming from the AC if its on recirc mode. The cabin filter would only reduce outside smells coming in if it was a carbon activated type in which the Fit does come with that but typically the OEM replacements ive seen are not. The smells come from people who run the ac on and off which causes condensation build up in the evaporator which mildews. You can reduce that smell by turninhg off the AC 5mins before your destination and set the mode to fresh air to allow evap to dry.

 

He has a point there are some differences with running a full synthetic oil and running a conventional oil the indicator is the best way to go but it is best to run a full synthetic oil when running with the indicator he is just looking out for his businessrunning 10,000 miles with a conventional oil is stretching it because the oil breaks down much faster it is not rated to run that long it is rated for 3000 miles the full synthetic is rated for 7000 to 10,000 especially in A zero 20 weight
I run a Firestone and we are told to tell people this bc we have to cover our business ..

And yes the 2013 Toyota Corolla's do require a full synthetic oil trust me

 

I don't trust the MM, because the ecu tells me I am getting 34 to 37 MPG when I actually get between 28 and 32. If the computer can't compute the mpg correctly how good is the MM? That being said, when I was younger the recommended oil change interval was 5,000 miles, eventually it became 3,000 miles (to keep oil change places busy?), now we have better oils available.
