motor oil. Isn't that weird? I didn't even know that weight existed. Plus it also recommends a 10,000 mile change interval for normal conditions. I always maintain my car using the severe condition schedule and Honda still recommends a 5,000 mile interval. In fact, the only other service besides oil change that is recommended before 110,000 is to change the brake fluid every 3 years and change the auto trans fluid at 60,000 miles. They've come a long ways in making cars lower maintenance.
I know this is a SAAB forum, but SAAB doesn't offer a car that I can afford right now. So when I gave up my '99 9-3, I had to set my sights a little lower and the Honda fit the bill. It's an economy car without the economy feel. Maybe one day that Aero will sit in my garage.
