Default 2008 Accord coolant change

What do you guys recommend for a coolant change interval. The maintence minder doesn't work if you don't go to 15% on the oil change. Does anybody have the capacity of the coolant system.

For a 2008 you are not going to need to change the coolant anytime soon, unless you put high miles on the car. Its also recommended to change the coolant frequently if you live in a really cold or hot climate.

As for the amount of coolant, I don't remember off the top of my head. Check the manual.

I don't know which Accord you have, but if I drain the radiator and the block (rear drain), it takes 1.77 Gallons to fill it. I assume 2 gallons would be enough for any Accord. I would use the Honda premixed coolant.
