    Even though my Honda manual recommends to change the air filter every 30,000 miles, I pulled mine out. It had 15,000 miles on it, dated 3/18 it was dirty and worthy of a replacement. Thank you

    Grease monkey recommends.....

    My 2001 Honda Accord 3.0 I was talking with the manager at Grease Monkey today. They recommend an oil change (Conventional oil) and a new air filter every 3,000 miles. The Honda manual recommends 7,500 miles for an oil change and 30,000 miles to change the air filter. Is it fair to say that...

    I like doing oil changes on my car and 6 months seems a bit long. Today I put BG 44k in my tank fill up and a new air filter. I would really like to get 300,000 miles out of this car. The air filter was dirty for 15,000 miles. The manual says to change the air filter at 30,000 miles. Thank you

    I am the second owner. I purchased the car 4 years ago, it had 185,000 miles on it. The previous owner did all the maintenance with oil changes at 3,000 miles. I don't like the idea of throwing away good oil but I came here to gather information from experience. Thank you

    Funny you recommend that because I rotated my tires and they put a sticker on the window for 4,000 miles. Thank you
