Why Reset the Oil Light
Resetting the oil light after each oil change ensures your Civic’s maintenance schedule stays accurate. If the reminder isn’t reset, it could alert you too early or too late for your next service.
Quick Maintenance Tip
Regular oil changes every 3,000 to 5,000 miles help keep the Civic’s engine running smoothly and extend fuel economy and performance. Always use the recommended oil grade listed in your owner’s manual.
