There aren't regular tune-up intervals, except to adjust the idle every 160,000 miles. The Maintenance Minder System tells you what to do through a series of codes that display near the oil life indicator.

Trust the Maintenance Minder System. It is there to serve you and your Si. Here's what's suggested for the the Maintenance Minder System codes on my car:


Adjust the valves during services A, B, 1, 2, or 3 only if they are noisy.

Inspect idle speed every 160,000 miles (256,000 km).

Independent of the maintenance minder indicator in the information display, replace the brake fluid every 3 years.



Maintenance Minder A Scheduled Maintenance
Recommended service for your 2007 Honda Civic Si:

Replace engine oil1

If the message "SERVICE" does not appear more than 12 months after the display is reset, change the engine oil every year.



Maintenance Minder B Scheduled Maintenance
Recommended service for your 2007 Honda Civic Si:

Replace engine oil1 and oil filter
Inspect front and rear brakes
Check parking brake adjustment

Inspect brake hoses and lines (including ABS)
Inspect all fluid levels and condition of fluids

Maintenance Minder 2 Scheduled Maintenance
Recommended service for your 2007 Honda Civic Si:

If you drive primarily in urban areas that have high concentrations of soot in the air from industry and from diesel-powered vehicles, replace every 15,000 miles (24,000 km).

Inspect drive belt



Maintenance Minder 3 Scheduled Maintenance
