Maintenance Req'd

Whenver I start my car, the Maint Req'd light blinks for like 15-20 seconds.. then turns off..

I haven't noticed it till today... does this mean that something is wrong w/ my car, or is this how it has always been.

The reason i'm asking is because I have short ram intake and Tanabe Cat-Back... And i'll have to switch everything back to stock if i'm going to take it back to get it checked out.

naw its cool it always does it. Youll notice when its on.. itll be on ALL the time. if you read the manual itll tell u that it blinks a few times when u 1st turn on ur car.

when i 1st bought my car i was at 9k miles. when i hit 10k my light stayed on. i freaked. heh. but it was just hondas way of gettin ya in for a checkup. my bf just turned the light off.
