Factory-Recommended Honda Civic Service

Your Honda Civic will require around 25 different types of service over the course of 150,000 miles on the road. As you continue through this guide, you’ll notice many services will need to be repeated periodically. These services range from replacing fluids and parts to inspections that just keep an eye on everything.

Using the Honda Civic Maintenance Minder

This guide uses odometer readings to gauge when maintenance should occur. Since your car keeps track of mileage anyway, this makes it easy to follow along.

Additionally, the Honda Civic is equipped with a Maintenance Minder feature. It tracks your mileage as you travel. Messages will pop up on your Driver Information Interface when maintenance is due or overdue.

The Maintenance Minder uses codes as shortcuts to suggest services. The main codes are the letters A and B. These represent the most significant recurring maintenance tasks the Honda Civic requires.

Numbers represent sub-codes that follow a main code. They generally signify tasks you’ll perform less frequently—though they are no less important.

Here’s a summary of every Honda Civic Maintenance Minder code:

• A: Replace engine oil
• B: Replace engine oil and oil filter; inspect brakes, all fluids, hoses and lines, exhaust system, suspension, driveshaft boots, and fuel lines
• 1: Rotate tires
• 2: Replace air cleaner and filter; inspect drive belt
• 3: Replace transmission fluid
• 4: Replace spark plugs; inspect valve clearance
• 5: Replace engine coolant
• 6: Replace brake fluid

Now, let’s dive in and explore an overview of what each mileage interval typically entails.

7,500-Mile Service 

This early in your car’s life, maintenance keeps all its systems in tip-top shape. 7,500 miles is approximately equivalent to six months of driving.

At this point, you’ll need to care for your engine with an oil and filter change. A tire rotation is also in order. Because the Honda Civic uses front-wheel drive, braking causes greater friction against the front tires. Tire rotation keeps tire wear evenly distributed to prolong tire longevity.

It’s also important to have your Honda Civic undergo a safety inspection. This should include visual inspection of the brakes, belts, and hoses. Check for fluid leaks and any other irregularities in vehicle operation.

15,000-Mile Service 

15,000 miles is roughly equivalent to one year of driving a new Honda Civic! This interval is the same as the previous but it’s advisable to get your Civic a brake pad replacement for its first birthday.

You should continue to administer an oil change and tire rotation now and for every additional 7,500 miles the Honda Civic travels.

30,000-Mile Service 

Along with the oil change and tire rotation, it’s time to receive another thorough inspection. Include the aforementioned systems. At 30,000 miles, your Civic is ready for a new engine oil filter, air cleaner element, and spark plugs.

45,000-Mile Service 

Your car is now about three years old. Repeat all the services listed under the 7,500-mile section. Replace the engine oil filter, too. Your Honda Civic should have its brake fluid and engine coolant replaced at this time.

60,000-Mile Service

After four years or 60,000 miles, Honda Civic drivers repeat the general system inspection. Get a new oil filter installed, an air cleaner element, and spark plugs.

105,000-Mile Service 

This maintenance is scheduled after roughly six years of driving. Drivers will need to replace the timing belt and inspect the vehicle’s water pump. Replace the engine oil and filter plus the engine coolant. As always, repeat the general system inspection.
