    Oil for Petrol engines - 0w/20?

    Thanks guys for the advice. Just not sure what brand oil to buy now. Is it best to order from poor oils? Looks like you get some little extras along with oil.

    Oil for Petrol engines - 0w/20?

    Thanks. Just a quickie! If people do their own servicing instead of the garages/qualified mechanics how does the logistics work. I mean, how does the service book get stamped and is it recognised as being done properly if people do their own. Obviously we still need to take car for mot etc but...

    Oil for Petrol engines - 0w/20?

    So don't need to torque the filter up then?? So items needed are jack, axle stands, oil, filter, drain bolt/washer, filter removal tool! Think I will change from semi synth 10w/40 to fully synth 5w/30. But what brand oil??

    Oil for Petrol engines - 0w/20?

    I'm ***uming the oil filter removal tool allows for a socket set to attach to it to remove it?? I have a torque wrench so does it have to be tightened to a specific amount? Will I need a new sump plug as well? If I buy 4L of oil is it worth pouring in the whole lot?

    Thanks guys. I have axle stands and a jack already as I have changed brake discs and pads and suspension on my old cars. Are there any other bits of kit I need to change the oil and filter? Yeah Honda kidlington are a bit of a joke. There is a guy that works on the front desk that always serves...

    Oil for Petrol engines - 0w/20?

    I don't doubt for a minute that garages are ripping people off as oil seems to be cheap and filters arnt much either. I have been tempted to do it myself to save money but I guess the thought of doing it puts me off as not sure how easy it is to do.

    Oil for Petrol engines - 0w/20?

    My car is an 08 model so I guess no longer under waranty also. If I was to change the oil to 5w/30 full synth am I likey to experience any problems?? My cousin works for Toyota and he has said they will use Mobil 5w/30 for my car. How easy is it to do oil change myself.

    Oil for Petrol engines - 0w/20?

    Hi RichSprint, Engine oil is one thing that always confuses me. So why would kidlington honda say that my car needs 10W/40 semi-synthetic? I have also been told that if I was to change the grade then I might be likely to suffer from engine knocking or other problems. So not really sure what to...

    Accord CU1 and CU2 exhaust!

    Hi, I have a 2008 2.0L Accord CU1 (R20A3 engine). I am looking to upgrade the exhaust but have not seen any aftermarket kits apart from the Mugen one which is quite expensive. However, there are a few available for the 2.4L Accord CU2 (K24A). Does anyone know if the exhaust for the CU2 would...

    Sport Grille

    Does any one know where to purchase a sport grille from? I have heard that HH no longer sell them individually, only with the bumber which is quite expensive! Can HH sell them separately? Any help/advise is appreciated. Thanks, Richard.
