You should only use Honda MTF for the gearbox and if you drive the car hard i'd definitely recommend doing it every other year. Don't forget the cabin filter.

I'd second that. Honda transmissions (MT, AT or CVT) hate other oils. Experienced it firsthand on my manual Honda Civic after changing with generic brand. Replaced it with Honda MTF after two weeks.

Yes, was nice to get it all done. Didn't take too long either.

Always a great watch, service with a smile on this one, unlike a main dealership.

That car needs a full detail of its underside!

Nice work! Servicing at a workshop can be so ridiculously expensive. Almost 1000 pounds in difference, if I heard the price correctly. For that money I can buy the tools I need, and even though I am slow and inexperienced, I could finish the work faster than It would take me to make that amount of money at my job.

Don't forget the often overlooked pollen filter 👍.

Great work and content.

Really enjoying the work you are doing on the Honda. A dry ice clean on the chassis/ underside would be great.👍

I personally thought those spark plugs looked ok, not sooty, just the perfect colour. As you did not know how old they were probably safe to change. Good job though.

Why didn't you use an original Blue Honda S2000 Oil filter?

@supervitz7178 Күн бұрын

Nice work. The only thing I probably would've done differently is to use genuine Honda coolant. Something about draining the blue stuff and refilling with the red doesn't sit right with my OCD. I recently did the same on a family members Accord of a similar vintage and the genuine coolant was about the same price as Comma, if not cheaper.

The service manuals for quite a few cars specify that you do not apply anything to the spark plug threads.

I haven’t watched your videos in a while (basically since the last Porsche video) and I must say your editing style has definitely improved. The only nitpick I have is that you didn’t show the cleaning of all the spilled oil on the transmission and differential, which is a bit unsatisfying.

Love your top tips. 😊

Thanks so much! 😊

You need to torque the filter to spec. I know it sounds rubbish, but the engine resonates at a frequency that can loosen the filter. I’ve been there, and had a small engine bay fire to prove it!

Worth fitting an oil filter stopper. I have one on mine.
