When should i be adding the Oil?

[enaam]

When should i top up the engine oil? should i fill it up to the Mark every time i see its going a bit low or should i be waiting till it reaches the add oil Marking the LOW one.

If you think its going low then it must be leaking your first concern should be fixing the leak and what you are asking if you should wait till it reaches low to top up then now you shouldn't but also dont ever over fill it too.

I like to make sure the oil level is about three quarters full when cold so that when it heats up it expands to nearly top level.

It doesn't matter how frequently you add, unless it's obviously leaking, although Hondas will burn a bit of oil with hard use. Just make sure it never gets dangerously close to the bottom nick on the dipstick and you should be fine!

Good Luck!

Honda recommends 5000km or 3months whichever is coming first
