OKay, i just got my oil changed today...
My mileage was 4156 miles,
and the indicator said my oil life still got 40%....

but finally, i got an oil filter from Honda Dealer,
and get 5W-20 Synethic oil from Pepboy....
then i bring my car to my friends store,
he helped me to change it.....

But my friend told me that, actually i should use 10W-30 instead of 5W-20, and the concentration of the synethic oil for 5W-20 is kind of low,
so should i listen to my friend next time or i should continue to use 5W-20?

One more thing wanna hear from u guys,
is it good to get my engine oil change around every 4000 miles?

thanks guys!
