I got this oil in my car and it's been roughly slightly less then 7000 miles on my current OCI on a Honda Accord, 2006 V6. I am about to change it out as the MMS is at -1700 but am I still good in terms of being safe especially since I am about to make the change any day now?? I am worried I could have gone too long. My previous oil was Motorcraft 5w-20 and I never went beyond 5-5.5 k on that oil. Is the Max-life good enough for 7k OCI? Btw, I am in hot and humid severe climate right now too.

The TBN is good on this oil so you are probably about at its limit at 7,000 miles.
High sodium ad pack designs are quite annoying. They sometimes throw off your eye for seeing other low level coolant contaminants. Castrol and Mobil5000/7500 are also sodium offenders.

Valvoline uses sodium in pretty much everything they make. There must be a good reason. I don't mind, as long as it's doing my engine some good.
