2018 Civic Maintenance Service Minder
It is time for another oil change, and service minder shows A 1 3. I know 3 means transmission fluid change, but my transmission fluid was changed several months ago at a Honda dealer. Does anybody know how the computer suggests maintenance services, or is there anything wrong in my case? Thanks a lot.

My interval for ATF is every 30k miles. Honda fluid only.
May be the 1st ATF fluid change..... has shown up.
Reset and drive on !!

The computer knows that the minder was reset, it doesn't necessarily know that you changed the fluid
If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Yet another reason you should keep your own records of all services.
