This is actually from the August, 2007 Honda Service News. It lists revised oil change intervals for all Honda vehicles. The main change for us V owners is the intervals have gone way up on the 1st gen's.

Page 5 has the chart. I am unable to make it small enough for the forum's size limits and still be readable.

Recommended Oil Change & Inspection Intervals Job Aid

Currently Applies To: All Models

With improvements in engine oil and engine design,
American Honda has steadily stretched out its
recommended intervals between oil changes. In the
beginning, there was just one oil change interval:
7.5K. In ’01, the 10K interval was introduced on the
new Civic. And in ’05, the maintenance minder
system came on the scene with the new Odyssey.
To help you keep all of this stuff straight, we’ve
posted the Recommended Oil Change & Inspection
Intervals job aid on ISIS. This handy chart lists all
Honda cars and trucks for the past 10 years and
shows you at a glance what oil change interval
applies for a particular model and model year. For
easy recognition, we’ve even color-coded the
intervals: blue for 7.5K, red for 10K, and green for
maintenance minder.
