    First oil change cost and what do they do?

    I like to do my own work, oil changes will be more often than factory optomists. First service at local Honda dealer as I’m 3hr away from Indian shop. $262NZ including taxes and the oil kit(141) Best to have a recognised shop do spec services while warranty valid.
