I wonder if it is tracking miles.. speed. length of driving and stuff like that to come up with their numbers. or if there is a sensor actually checking the quality of the oil.
I'm guess its my first thoughts |
If you Honda set up is anything like GM's it follows an algorithm to determine oil life. It monitors multiple things like run time, engine temp, air temp, miles, throttle position, average length of trips, etc. There is no sensors to check oil quality.
This is an excellent move as 3000 miles truly is not necessary.
