At what mileage interval does the maintenance required light come on? I've put almost 6k miles since resetting it and still nothing. The bulb is good I can see the light when I turn my key. And I reset the light when i bought the car. But still hasn't popped back on,, just curious.

it should pop on every 10k miles. It'll start flashing at you at 8k miles, then steady on at 10k

Yeah, that's what I do. But I finally have a car with a reminder light so I wanted to be able to just follow that. But there's no way I'm waiting that long lol. I'm at 6k but my oil is still clean so I wasn't worried, just weird that the light wasn't coming on but now I know. Thanks

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
Re: Maintenance light
You can confirm the expected miles for that light in your owners manual

On the 01-05, it just comes on at mileage intervals. It doesn't take into account driving habits like the 06+ civics do
