How Many Kilometers Between Each Maintenance for the 10th Generation Accord?
2 Answers
The maintenance interval for the Accord is every 5,000 kilometers. Additional information is as follows: First Maintenance for the Accord: The first maintenance for the Accord is performed at 5,000 kilometers. This free maintenance can be done at any GAC Honda 4S store nationwide. The main tasks include checking the vehicle's condition and replacing the engine oil and oil filter. Subsequent maintenance services will be based on this, with decisions made on whether to replace or clean/add various fluids and parts depending on their wear and tear. Transmission Fluid Replacement Cycle for the Accord: The transmission fluid replacement cycle for the Accord varies by model. The 2.0L and 2.4L models, which use a CVT transmission, require transmission fluid replacement every 40,000 kilometers. The 3.0L model, equipped with a 6AT transmission, has a transmission fluid replacement cycle of every 60,000 kilometers.
I've been driving the 10th-generation Accord for almost three years now, and I basically follow the 5,000-kilometer interval for maintenance. That's what the manual says, and the 4S shop recommends the same. During city traffic jams, the engine frequently starts and stops, and the oil consumption is particularly fast, so I never exceed this mileage. Last time, I went for maintenance after exceeding it by 300 kilometers, and the mechanic said the oil color had darkened. Now, I do a full set of maintenance every time—changing the engine oil and oil filter is standard, the air filter and cabin air filter are replaced every other time, and tire rotation is a must every time. Before the summer heat, I also check the coolant. Following this maintenance routine, even after 60,000 kilometers, the engine sound is as steady as when it was new. Regular maintenance is truly worth it—spend a little now to save on major repairs later.
