2015 Honda CRV After 105K Miles - Valve Cover Off

Also have a 2015 CRV. Fair amount of cold weather and short-tripping. No noticeable oil consumption at 95k, but never more than a 5k/60% oil life remaining OCI per Honda’s Maintenance Minder. A few years ago we had an Acura tech on this board who thought Honda’s MM didn’t penalize oil life enough for short trips. I suspect he was correct.
Yes, I think the 5K change interval is the key to healthy early GDI engines. I realized this a bit late with the CRV.

With our Tiguan it has been 5K changes strictly to forego Turbo GDI heck.
