I'd rather take my chances on the factory reccomended 6000 mile interval that bring it to a Jiffy Lube.

I actually usually take mine there cause I'm always in a hurry.

But, I stand out there. Bring my own oil and filter, tell them how to put it in. They show me the old filter and I make them change my crush washer .

Jiffy Lube must suck cause two of them were closed down near my area just out of the blue months ago. One day they were open and then the next i saw them boarded up.

I sued Jiffy Lube for blowing up my civic 4dr motor. That is why i now have VX motor. Very long drawn out story, I even posted a website containing all info I had about the situation. Every since that moment I learned how to maintain my hondas since.
