50,000 Miles !!
 
And appearantly, Maint is Req'd again. That has got to be my 2nd favorite warning after the "Check Engine" light, under the category of Vague and/or useless indicators.

I only have approximately 6500 miles on mine.


4 months old BTW, but it hasn't been driven for a month after the accident.

Wow, thats a lot of miles! I cringe when I look at mine, and I only have 5,000 on mine!! (had it for 5 months). I just dont want my baby to get old!![IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Getupk1d 02-14-2002 07:21 AM

50,000 isnt that bad if he has a long commute to work. I have 16000 on mine and ive only had it since June. The funny thing is I live about 1 mile from my office, but the place I work has about 32 locations in metro Milwaukee so I get paid mileage (36.5 cents per mile) to drive to them.

robbclark1 02-14-2002 07:25 AM

01civicmike, he doesn't have a problem, just requires regular maintenance. I have almost 7k on mine and have had it since july. I am trying for the 1k every month. I only drive 15 miles combined to and from work. Hope i can keep it low. I will probably have to take some road trips to visit graduate schools.

01CivicMike 02-14-2002 08:04 AM

oh I know...... its just an idiot light, tripped by mileage only. I drive 150 miles per day, but I have another car that I drive about 50% to keep the miles off of the 2K1......

One year this month and 21K.....

Diznavis 02-14-2002 09:47 AM

avenger 02-14-2002 09:58 AM

NitehawkVTEC 02-14-2002 10:36 AM

wow, i have 50000KM and i thought i was at the top of the heap. BTW, I'm also named dave, and I also sell fire in hell!


UncleB 02-14-2002 11:32 AM

I am about to hit 7k since October.

Unleaded 02-14-2002 04:58 PM

50K miles? In terms of Honda miles, that's like 10K - you still have a long way to go buddy!

R3DF0G 02-14-2002 07:43 PM

11k here and ive got that damn maint reqd light coming on.....but my dealer told me that it just comes on at certain mileages because of "scheduled maintenance" :shake:

Dave 02-14-2002 08:26 PM

[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] Yeah, i've had the car since Nov. of 2000. 50,000 miles on a Honda is nothing, thats why I got it. By the time a supercharger comes out though, it'll probably blow my engine up.
Nitehawk, i've updated my sig.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

NBPCivic 02-14-2002 08:43 PM

I got my car November 9th, 2001 and I have 968 miles. Just about 10 miles a day. Is that the lowest amount on the board????

01CivicMike 02-15-2002 06:14 AM

You need to drive it more dude. Real low mileage is worse than high miles. Oil sludges, fuel gets junk in it, combustion chambers never clear out. Make sure you are following the "severe" schedule in your manual.

Did you forget? You're driving a Honda. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

(Unless I'm forgetting some type of supernatural unknown forced induction you've got under the hood of your ride.)

Don't worry! It's still good! It's still good!

ASIANPRIDE 02-15-2002 07:09 AM

Not 38,000km/h....:) But it's cuz it's a Civic that it has that many km on it...cuz I love my baby....:)
