Technically speaking, since I got the oil and filter change and reset the maintenance codes, shouldn’t it only say 100% oil life with no letters or numbers underneath?

Since the 2019 models I believe, the code for the next service due will show not just the 100% oil life remaining. As you drive, other codes may also show such as for tire rotation or brake fluid exchange.

Yeah, we just picked up a 2018 Civic Couple for my daughter, and her maintenance minder shows 70% oil life left with a code of B on the dash. I researched it too, as I was confused why it would already be showing a code.

Apparently the newer generation of maintenance minder is just letting you know...in ADVANCE, what to expect when you hit the 15% mark. With my 2016 accord and 2017 pilot, maintenance minder doesn't say anything but oil life. So when I hit 15%, i might get an A1, I might get a B12, etc. It's a surprise. With this newer system, I can see ahead of time that once oil goes from 70% to 0%, that I really only have to do a B service. Not a B12, or B123. Just a B. So, I know what to expect.

You aren't due for anything, no need to worry.

Ok this thread confuses me. Why in the world would you not change the filter along with the oil? Like Ihave never heard of this.
