Servicing Worth changing oil at 1500 miles?

Carina · 28th January 2008, 12:58

I have a 2.2i-CDTi Civic which is coming up to 1500 miles. According to the service schedule it needs no attention until 12000 miles or 12 months but I have always done an oil change at about 1500 miles in previous (petrol) cars. Is it worth dropping the oil in the diesel Civic?

Probably not - given the 3 year warranty Honda wouldn't allow the 12000 miles if this was any problem. CHanging earlier is not bad by any means (except for the environment maybe) but just plain expensive
