Honda recommend Drain & Fill, NOT flush. Flushing isn't always good news! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noodels Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 well just get rid of the sludge!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johngreen537 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 well just get rid of the sludge!!I usually buy a couple of gallons of the cheapest oil I can find, drain the old stuff out, fill it up, warm it up a little, then do it again! Then fill it the 3rd time with proper oil! Much more of a f***y on, but better than adding some engine flush which has potential to cause real pain!Honda clearly state in all manuals now that additives etc are not required or recommended, all they will do is increase the price of motoring & servicing...

prezes Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 Ok manage to get 2 vids. For some reason the sound is disorted, need a better camera. Remember the car is still on base map - not tuned. Also can't shift on high rpm due to new clutch so single videos for 2nd and third. Proper ones will get done after the tuning.3cae_VYSTgU hmKY_3wQDhQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
