Unfortunately, yes. Honda does not take actual distance driven into consideration (actual distance driven of my vehicle was about 6k km although the PMS was for 20k km/12 mos). I checked the diesel vs gas CRV cost of ownership computation done by ************ last Feb. 2018. They were spot on with the PMS cost:12 mos P15,575.62: 24 mos P16,760.62, 36 mos. P19,310.10.

Manual calls for ACEA C2/C3 for the diesel.
We’re all hostages whenever we buy a new vehicle. It is unfortunate that Honda chooses to gouge its customers: P881 for an oil filter, over P2k for an air filter, P600 for Brake Squeal (it’s a 29ml bottle, about as big as a shampoo bottle from a hotel; you only put a few drops behind the brake pads...one bottle could probably be used on half a dozen cars or more).
Both the 1.6 turbo diesel and the 9-speed AT are unproven commodities in Asia so despite the high maintenance cost from the casa, I think it would still be prudent to maintain the warranty.
