Solution

1. Follow Manufacturer's Recommendations

Check the owner's manual for specific intervals, typically suggested every 7,500 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first, for synthetic oil.
For conventional oil, changes may be required more frequently, such as every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.

2. Monitor Oil Life Indicator

If your Honda Civic is equipped with an oil life monitoring system, pay attention to the indicator.
Change the oil when the system alerts you, which can indicate it's time for maintenance based on driving conditions.

3. Consider Driving Conditions

If you frequently drive in severe conditions (e.g., stop-and-go traffic, extreme temperatures), consider changing oil more frequently, approximately every 5,000 miles.
