2021 Honda CB125F Annual Service!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ต.ค. 2024
- Hello and welcome to the episode, today im going to show you how to perform the first 600 mile service on a 2021 Honda cb125f, this video will cover what oil to use, what tools to use, resetting the service light, chain adjustment and relevant service checks. (you must get your valves checked on your first service 600mile)
The oil im using is castrol power 1 ten thirty, I use this because of the climate in the UK, if you live in a hotter country I recommend using ten forty, the API quality for this oil is SL which exceeds the SG recommendation by Honda, the MA classification and code is JASO T 903 which is also recommended by Honda.
First thing you want to do is run your engine for 5 minutes an get the oil nice and warm, this will make the oil thinner and easier to drain.
After 5 minutes switch the engine off, make sure the bike is on the main stand
use a suitable drain bowl and place underneath the engine
unscrew the oil filler cap as shown
here is the sump drain bolt
use a 12mm socket and loosen the bolt counter-clock wise
unscrew the bolt with your fingers, be careful the oil will come out fast and it will be hot, so I recommend wearing gloves
while that is draining move around to the opposite side of the engine and using a 8mm socket remove the oil filter cover as shown
carefully remove the cover making sure the spring doesn't fall, remove the spring, and then pull out the filter, do not use a screwdriver to remove the filter, give it a wiggle with your fingers and it will come out eventually
note orientation of the filter, the rubber seal side faces the engine,
replace the o ring if you have one, if not put some multi-purpose grease around the rubber seal
push the filter in evenly and firmly, then install the spring
put the cover on and screw the bolts with small increments, working up and down so the cover pulls in evenly
now tighten to 10nm, if you don't have a torque wrench just nip these up and don't put too much pressure on the ratchet
wipe the excess oil off the engine
use a new sump washer, the sump washer is 20mm, if you don't have one and this is your first service the washer will go again if you flip it
carefully screw the bolt in with your fingers, use the 14mm socket and tighten this bolt to 30nm
this model took 800ml of oil, use a jug for accurate readings
fill the engine with 600ml
clean the dipstick and place into the filler hole, do not screw it in.
pull the dip stick out and check the measurement as shown
put another 100ml in and re dip
screw the cap in and clean the excess
start the engine for 1 minute, and check all over for any leaks, now turn it off and leave for 2 minutes.
Unscrew the cap, wipe the dipstick and re dip
put the last 100 ml and re dip, making sure the oil line touches the top marker as shown, its important the bike is on a flat surface and on the main stand here.
Here I tip the old oil in the used container, as you can see I drained 800ml, the same amount I put in, its a good idea to check what you have drained and compare to what you have put in., some engines burn oil so don't be alarmed if its less. Make sure you dispose of your used oil at your local waste centre.
Here is how to reset the inspection light,
with the ignition off press and hold the set button and at the same time turn on the ignition key, the inspection spanner will now go out.
That's the end of the video, hope this has been useful, why pay main dealer prices when you go do it yourself and you know you've done it properly and learnt something along the way, please subscribe for more, until then, Ive been Nick and ill catch you on the next episode
This is one of the most clear and comprehensive guides I have seen on the internet for these tasks. Great tutorial.
Thanks Barry your feedback means alot and encourages me to make more in the future ! 😀
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ye - it appears that theere is less to do than on å bicycle, But I agree - a very GOOD tutorial !!! - really good 👍👍👍👍👍👍
@@nicksepisodeman, please, what kind of filter can i use? Is kn112 good??

@@nicksepisode i can"t buy oem in romania, any other alternatives?
For those new to riding, and don't want to waste money in a shop for oil change, this video is very useful.
Doing things on your bike ain't hard, until you've got some electrical gremlings in it.
Don't you loose warranty when you servicing by yourself?
Most probably, use genuine parts and go to a vat registered independent garage best way be sure
I love the simplicity! I'm viewing a 2022 model Honda CB125F on Friday so will hopefully be riding home on it!!!
Good luck ! Enjoy
Top to bottom covered like a pro!!! Great tutorial mate! You should be a great teacher! Respect!!! Love from Romania 🇷🇴 ❤️!!!
Thank you so much
Salut !
Salut
Great video! Will be getting this bike in a week or so and it’s exactly what I was looking for, all in one place.
Thanks Nick.
No problem, enjoy your new motorcycle 👍😀
How are you getting on with your 125f? I’m getting one soon probably
@@jamie123b traded it in after passing my DAS but to be honest I quite miss it. Great little bike
@@angelodonofrio2 nice I did my CBT today and loved it so will be buying the 125f hopefully next week! What did you buy to replace your one?
@@jamie123b can’t go wrong with the 125f, hope you enjoy it. I got a Tenere 700 then downsized to a CRF300 Rally which is perfect for me - good daily bike, great on green lanes and off road stuff.
You'll thank yourself 1000 times if you invest £450 in a hydraulic bike bench. It sounds a lot but it'll last forvever and never again will you get down on your knees to work on a bike. Ive just bought one and my God how i wish id bought it 20 years ago.
Great detailed instructions. Thanks.
Got to look after those knees ! If I had a garage, then I'd definitely get one !
This has helped me massively, this tutorial was so in depth so thank you 😊
You're welcome 😊
Very good! I think the fact that the bike comes with a centre stand as standard is gonna help with home maintenance. When I needed to remove the front wheel to change the tyre 2 days ago, the centre stand made it much easier.
More manufacturers should do this!
Fantastic clear instructional video, I decided to service my own bike for the 1st time after watching your video, I took my time and followed your instructions, and I think I did a good job and saved myself 100 odd quid..
Well done buddy
Thank you so much Nick. Crystal clear video giving me confidence in doing my own maintenance. Legend
Great to hear! and good luck! thanks for watching
One thing I learned from Honda is, if they tell you that the engine takes 800ml of oil, It will take 800ml of oil, so you can just pour 800ml and be done with it😊 BUT always check what's the oil quantity required in case you don't need or want to replace the oil filter. You can skip an oil filter change between services as these engines are very well made especially the ESP models.
Absolutely
Oh my God! Thanks for your video! You really put a lot of effort into it. Even wrote everything down in the comment amazing. I got my bike in April, now I'm prepared :D
You are you very welcome, enjoy your bike!
Clearly the best video for the cb125f
cheers I am honoured
Thanks a lot man, it is sooooo useful !! I bought a cb125f recently, I'll do the first annual service on garage but then I'll do it myself.
Again, thanks a lot !
Enjoy!
I write this after 125 comments… strange eh..? Thanks for this, I’m a new y, waiting to do my CBT and looking at my first non-scooter bike.mThis and the review of this bike has been a great help, so thanks for your efforts.
Congratulations 🎊 I'm also pleased my video has helped you
Super video. I would not of put general purpose grease on that oil filter cover o-ring though. If you really want to put grease on it better off putting rubber safe grease on.I'm not sure it needs any other than a bit of engine oil.
Shame on me, the mine is very dirt, yours is so clean, like a new one. Thanks for tuto. Just in case, when release gaz or left hand release you have a noise of metal, light and short, it's chain tension. Got the problem this week. 3000km, the chain with 50mm. I adjusted chain tension to 25mm, then no more this noise. Have a good ride.
Good tip!
i go for my CBT on the 9th of November and i am trying to save like mad to buy the same bike.
Great video and great advice keep it up
Thank you 😊
Your CBF 125 servicing video is by far the best on the Internet. Congratulations for the best video. Can you tell me about the oil release screw, when unscrewing the key no. 12 and when screwing in the key no. 14. I don't understand that.
Thank you! Sorry about that i should have explained, i purchased a magnetic bolt and the size changed, you dont need to worry, stock one is 12mm
Hi, thank you for a very clear video, you don't mention checking the tappets. I thought that they had to be checked and adjusted if necessary.
It does indeed, mine was done at a workshop because I didn't have the workshop manual for gap tolerances. Didn't want to make a video and possibly misinform viewers, so my main dealer done it.
This tutorial is amazing!!!! It´s not easy to do this. Awesome. Thank you!
You're welcome and thanks for watching
This video is the best I have ever seen on service ! .. wish my English is same level to give proper kudos 😅
Your English is spot on. Thank you for your kind words
I look forward to the day I do these checks for the first time
You got this
This same motorcycle I have but it's known here as SP125....but in manual it's cb 125 f....very good video indeed.
My first watch with you very impressive and complete with regard to every detail , Look forward to the next one
Thank you 😊
For the Honda CB125F, the recommended tire pressure is 28 psi front and 29p psi back for the 128kg bike before 2021 and for the newer 2021 117kg model 25 psi front 33 psi back. That being said I think I will stick with something like 27-28 psi front and 30-32 psi back on my 2021 CB125F which seems to work for me.
Thank you for the info
A very good and comprehensive vid. I just wonder if the lack of a dealer stamp at the first service would put people off buying when selling second hand? At least you have the vid to prove its all been done ✔
I don't think it would to be honest, not on this type of vehicle anyway. I work in the trade and I know how some mechanics are, I like to know my bikes are done properly by me.
@@nicksepisode I know what you mean, I refuse to take Carol's bike to a certain Triumph dealership who charged for work not actually done!
If you can't do the work yourself its tricky finding people or places to trust.
@@Banditmanuk agreed, some of the small independent garages are the best, where they still have passion for what they do
Thank you for the information, very helpful! Can you do a video outlining all tools needed and which oil/fluid to use and some do's and don'ts when servicing at home, I've just purchased this bike as my first bike on cbt and am fairly new to bikes
Great suggestion!
Another great episode. Doing my CBT in 2 weeks and this would be a great bike
Good luck Duncan 👍
I did mine two weeks ago and within the week i bought the 2018 of this bike , just 3 yrs old from the CBT instructor as he retired ! I got a great bike . TBH , I didn’t save that much against a new one but I didn’t want to wait 10 weeks and I reckon it’ll keep its value as it’s in top Nick and garaged
Jug is a fantastic tip, nice video mate.
Glad to help
Спасибо за такое потрясающее видео! Хотел купить красную Honda, но белая смотрится тоже классно. Это видео нужно сохранять в закладках и использовать как видео инструкцию в салонах :)
Большое спасибо, это действительно делает меня счастливым, желаю вам удачи
Thank you young man for that very informative upload
:)
Thank you for this detailed guide about a correct maintenance process!
You're welcome 😊
it's better to use a carboard sheet to protect the rear tire when spraying chain lube, also your chain tension seems a bit too strong after adjustement, there is a play with rear suspension to account for when adjusting chain tension, before adjustement the chain tension seemed reasonably fine, too much chain tension and you wear chain, sprockets, and ball bearings faster, also front tire must be slightly less inflated than rear tire as marked on the sticker on the swingarm
thanks for your input
it is also possible to use a platic bottle that you cut to have a plastic protector for spraying chain lube, that way it protects in as many directions as you want 'depending on the shape you cut from the bottle)
Super !
So easy to understand og so professionel 👍🏻 greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰
Thank you
I have had my CB 125 F for over a week and will be getting to the 600 mile service shortly, I feel competent to do the service myself and have all the gear, just wondering how doing your own service affects the warranty if at all? As far as the bike goes, I am very pleased with it, the gear box has been a bit sticky from time to time but seems to be improving, I also have to be careful not to knock the headlight switch on when using the clutch, but other than that, so far so good. Power wise it seems ok even though I am on the heavier side, but then again I am not used to anything bigger and my cars over the years have usually been relatively low capacity. As somebody mentioned below, would be good to see a tutorial about doing the valve clearances! Thanks again for the tutorial very detailed!
If the bike is less than 2 years old then doing your own service will void your warranty. I decided to take that risk as I trust the Honda engine won't let me down within the warranty period.
@@nicksepisode Thanks for replying, I have also decided to take the risk and completed the first service today, even though the bike is new, reading through the manual and warranty book, it isn't very specific about having a service done by the Honda Dealer but is specific about using approved Honda parts. Anyway, it is running better with the new oil as expected. One of the other things mentioned in the manual about the 600 mile service is the engine idle speed. I installed one of those tachometers that has a lead wound round the spark plug lead and it seems to be idling within the limits of 1500 plus or minus 100.
@@truthseeker104 fantastic, good job!
Does the motorcycle changed somehow after the first 600 miles (break in)?
@januszjanusz1103 yes
Great job Nick, really really thorough ! Top notch "how to" vids thank you very much !! 👋👋👋
You're welcome
Excellent video. I would just say always use a new o ring on oil filter cover. Honda part only
Great point!
Brilliantly demonstrated
Good tutorial one thing, did the oil drain bolt grow after removal?, 12mm socket to remove 14mm socket to re-fit.
I like to put these Easter eggs in to see if viewers are paying attention 😉
As for oil, I recommend 1550 Castrol.
💯
Thank you very much for this very helpful tutorial. Greetings from Germany
You're welcome
Thanks for another very useful video. One point; the info on the swing arm (and the handbook) shows tyre pressures of 175 kPa (so just a tad over 25 psi) for the front and 225 kPa at the rear. Given the quite tiny contact area of the tyres I'd stick with the lower pressure at the front. I must admit that I did check the pressures just after I'd bought my bike from a main dealer. They were both significantly higher than 32 psi, cold! Can you have too much of a good thing?
Too much pressure isn't very good. If you go between 25 and 32 its absolutely fine and will vary on those ranges depending on preference, rider weight, temperature etc.
Thanks a lot for this tutorial, do you know which is the valve clearence for this bike, or if you can do a video about this, Thanks so much!!
Sorry, I don't have this bike anymore
Excellent information Nick! I'm excited to be thinking of my upcoming purchase...
I'm seriously torn between this CB Honda 125f, or the Super Cub 125 2022...
Great video thx, I subbed of course.
Hi thanks for the sub, think I'd prefer the cub but has a higher price tag!
Great video. Really useful for planning my future maintenance!
You are welcome
Hi Nick. Not sure if you'll see this comment but my 600mile service is due on this exact same bike. The manual says to replace the oil filter...is this necessary for the 600 service? If so.... Where can I get... And what filter do I need? I've scoured the net with no luck! Would it be a kn 113 filter? Thanks again for your help if you see this!

This is the one you'll need, I'd really changing it. Good luck
@@nicksepisode Thanks Nick! Lifesaver!
Attention the front tire pressure is incorrect, the correct pressure is FRONT 25 psi REAR 33 psi (it is marked in the manual), overinflating the front will make the front handle poorly
My mistake this has been noted in the comments already
I have one question, dit you replace the oil filter with a new one , or did you just take it out en clean it en than put it back ?
You can clean it with solvent if you wish, 300.miles isn't enough really for it to be replaced
Okey , solvent like: WD40 ?
I almost got it on 4000 km on the bike so i think i need to do everyting on this video
Great tutorial! I have recently ordered a Honda CB125F, still waiting for it to arrive! There are a few things I was wondering about it if anybody knows. Assuming that the oil filter is a much smaller version of the kind found in a car, how often does it need replacing? Was there much metal in the oil when it was first drained from the new bike and generally how does the bike perform on hills? Thanks
the filter is a smaller yes, it needs replacing every year or 3-4k miles I would say. The oil had no metal in at all. bike struggles on hills for a 14st person, fine with my wife on who is a fair bit lighter! we dont have many hills here so cant give great feedback on that. thanks for watching
@@nicksepisode Thanks for replying, I guess the filter will remove any particulates from the new engine. I was guessing that your very low fuel consumption was due to your wife being lighter. Other heavier riders have reported 140mpg ish. I live in a hilly area (Cumbria) and am on the heavy side so expect hill climbing to be sluggish!
My wife is considerably lighter than me lol
@@nicksepisode often the case!
Very clear instruction video! Thanks a lot. It invites to perform the first maintenance (after 600 miles) myself. I tried to find out online what the exact oil filter type is for the 2021 Honda CB125F, but couldn't find it. The manual doesn't mention it either. Does anybody know?
Buy it here www.ebay.co.uk/itm/275147906220?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=zJHLm0c_Q_C&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=_QCxPrBSSWS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
@@nicksepisode Well thank you very much, I really appreciate it.
@Nick & Jodie's Episodes, are you sure drain nut is opening counterclock wise as you opened it? No bike is drained that way. Please let me know my bike needs service asap and I don't want to destroy threads
If looking from underneath, yes. Looking down, no. Pretend the nut is facing you
Excellent video for newbies like me..thanks for sharing.
It's my pleasure
hi nick very glad to discover your channel.
That was a good video, I just bought my 1st motorbike which is a Honda CB125F dated of april 2021, I bought it last weekend at 320km (from origin of course). And i'm nearly the 1000km check (600ml that's it ?) so this video was really useful to me.
Oh and Honda France recommands 10W40 engine oil so... idk why oil should be different ? Well I took 10W40 on Honda advices.
Cheers !
Oil grades will depend on your countries climate. Cold climates you'd need a lower first number and hotter countries you'd need a higher first number.
@@nicksepisode ohhhh thats why we need 40 it's a bit warmer and drier than UK :)
Thanks for explanation !
Good presentation and well explained .Thanks for the video and it's helpful.
Appreciate the comment
fantastic video, was close to wasting £150 paying someone else to do this
Good job 👏
Thanks for the very useful demonstration on how to do this Nick. I will be doing my 600 mile service soon.
I enjoy watching your videos and especially how Jodie is progressing which has encouraged me. She is ahead of me but I am in a similar situation , CB125F + CBT + Theory, looking to do full A licence soon.
I was wondering if you changed the oil filter as the schedule says to replace this along with the oil? There does not seem to be anything in the service data about what oil filter to replace with, do you know what model/size it was? Thanks
Thanks Chris that great to hear, i wish you all the best. the oil filter is here www.ebay.co.uk/itm/275147906220?hash=item401017dcac:g:Q1sAAOSwZxth96vI good luck
Thanks for this video
The 2021 one looks so much better than my 2015 one and not just because its cleaner.
Agreed 👍
@@nicksepisode Shame there isn't an upgrade kit, looks like a new model. I've just finished cleaning up a massive mess it made of itself when a tiny bolt at the top of the engine came out! Needs retiring and replacing with one like yours
Very helpful for my new well 2015 cbf 😊
Enjoy your new motorcycle
Helpful video mate ! When do you doing the next oil change ?manual owner recommend 4.000 do you thrust ? Or do you change every thousand mile? Thanks
thank you Alex! I change the oil every year or 2500miles, which ever comes first
The Honda dealer charges 22euros (19 pounds) for the oil filter. The price is insane for an oil filter for such a small and basic bike.
crazy!
very professional service and video
Super useful, thank you for such a great video.
You're very welcome!
Very informative video. How important is it to follow the newton-metre settings?
Not very important to a competent mechanic, but more of a guide for people who are not mechanically minded.
Valve adjustment needed? And if, how often?
Great tutorial!
every 2.5k I have read, but I will look into it, video tutorial may be coming soon on that !
Thank you for this 👍
you are very welcome
Thanks for this, you saved me 50-100 euro
My please ! That's what I like to hear 👏
Can you make a video about valve clearance step by step?
Sorry I don't have this vehicle anymore
Hi, hope all is well.
If it's convenient could you post the model number( or identification number or serial number) for the sump washer and oil filter O ring in the description?
I don't know which one to order online.
Kind Regards,
Voltaire
Hi bud I don’t have this information any more, give your Honda dealer an email
Well made video. Thank you! (without music would have been even better but anyways)
Noted ✅️
thank you. good job😊
Great material - factually, specifically. However, I have a question, where did you get the tightening torques of the drain screw and oil filter cover, because they are not in the manual?
By a torque chart, going by the thread and bolt size
@@nicksepisode , Thanks :), probably in a "moment" there will be an official "service manual" :)
Front tyre should be 25psi
Says it on the swing arm in kpa 👍
Good on ya
Excellent, thanks for that 👍
Any chance you can show how to change an indicator on this model? I'm struggling haha 😅
Soz now sold it. All the best
Nick Great video thanks. I have a 2021 Honda CB125F as in this video. The Engine Management light keeps coming on. Four times now. The dealer sais it has been overfilled with fuel and there is fuel residue in the Eco chamber and it will eventually dry out. I wanted to check the fault code for myself but this model seems to have changed the OBD connector. Do you know where the OBD connector is located and if a OBD2 scanner can be connected to this model. I have looked under the seat but cannot see the connector there as suggested by other YT videos.
That's strange, it shouldn't put the light on because of over filling. Sounds like the dealer could be making up excuses. Don't sound right to me. I don't know where the connector is and I've now sold this bike so can't check for you. Hope you get it sorted
Hello generally a good video but you are giving the wrong tyre pressures for the front. It is not 32psi it is supposed to be 25psi. It even says this on your swinging arm and owner's manual. Putting too much pressure in the tyre (as you tell us to do) is dangerous because you will not be able to squash/ compress the tyre so much and therefore lose grip, particularly under emergency braking. The contact patch will be smaller. The rear tyre is 32 psi but not the front. You incorrectly read the psi from the side of the tyre wall but this is the maximum that the tyre can be inflated to and not the correct tyre pressure (which is on your swinging arm and in the owner's manual). The rest of the information is well presented though. Happy biking.
Well explained 👏
👌🏻
I want to ask you,why you did it your self
and not to the dealer's mechanic?
And what about the waranty?🤔
Im asking cause im thinking to make all services by my self...
I work for a Vat registered Company so I am covered by honda warranty
Great tutorial. Well done
Thanks. I’ve learnt a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
Should use paddock stand for chain adjacent
Centre stand is absolutely fine 🙂
Thank you! Very useful!
You're welcome
10:24 never trust tyres what pressure suggest
Only the bike
Its written somewhere in the frame of the bike
Well spotted

Thank you very much!
Have we got an episode for valve adjustment on this motorbike?
no sorry unfortunately not, now the bike has gone to a new home
Excellent merci✌
Great video, helped a lot.👊
No worries
Nice one Nick, I didn’t realise this was you initially .. that’s your partners/wife’s bike isn’t it ?
Yeah
@@nicksepisode
It was a great tutorial my friend.
How is it that you did the first service yourself, won’t that invalidate your warranty as I believe it was a brand new bike ?
@@peterkenworthy9219 I work for a vat registered company and used genuine parts so its all good
@@nicksepisode
And….. you know it’s been done .. keep the vids coming .
Can’t wait to get out on mine again at weekend . I’ve been getting myself some RST gear etcetc . Loving it , keep buying stuff for protection .
@@peterkenworthy9219 exactly! Oh RST gear is the best value for money in my opinion 👌
Hi mate could u point me in the right direction for a rear tyre 👍
So sorry, bud, but I never replaced mine. My wife passed her big test before the tyre wore out and we sold it.
Honda also state that the valve lash is also checked at 600 miles/1st service.
Have you got a video on how to do this?
This has been done but not by me, I don't have access to the adjustment specs so can't make a video on it yet.
@@nicksepisode makes you wonder if dealers even do it on 1st service as your normally required to leave a bike over night so the valve clearances can be adjusted on a cold engine like there ment to be!
Do they not spec the valve clearance in the owners manual anymore.
Shame If they don't as that engine will only be screw and locknut not shim under bucket like most engines now,it would only take 30 mins at home. I used to do my Grom in around 15mins as the cylinder head was hanging out the front of the bike so access was a doddle.
I'm working on finding the correct tolerances so I can make a video, this would be a nice addition to my videos.
@@nicksepisode If you do find out let us know. It can't be far off these...(haynes manual)
2009-2015 Honda CBF125
INLET 0.08mm +/-0.02mm
EXHUAST 0.12mm +/-0.02mm
2007-2012 Honda Innova
INLET 0.10mm +/-0.02mm
EXHAUST 0.10mm +/-0.02mm
You are checking chain slack next to the sprocket?!
@@iulianlazar8893 oh dear
I was lead to believe Nick first service had to be done by dealer as not to invalidate your warranty?
Genuine parts at a vat registered company you are absolutely fine. Besides, it's a Honda, what's warranty, these are built to last, especially the 2 year limited warranty you get anyway.
Hi i wanted to ask, i have the same model bike.. How many mileages we do the service (changing oil, brake fluids , oil filter, etc .) when we change oil is it obligation to do chain adjustment also?? I'm trying to take care of my bike as much as i can even if i have 0 knowledge for motorcycles as a begginer rider and first time owner.
Thanks.
chain check at 500 miles. change oil yearly. change brake fluid, air filter every 2 years. spark plug 3 years. just a guide but this will keep your bike top notch.
Can you please put a link for the little torque wrench you use in the most of the video?
you'll need two really a 3/8" one and a 1/2" one for the rear wheel. search other videos on this topic to get a better understanding.
@@nicksepisode I know that, i mean the brand of the tool you use.
Snap-On will always be my go to for professional use, but any other brand will be fine for the occasional service. Such as a silverline torque wrench will be OK.
Hi
Nice easy watch
Do you have to fill in the service book yourself to keep the warranty please
What is the recommended mileage for valve clearance to be adjusted
Nice video
I'd do them every 3k. Easy enough. They should also be done at first service. Fill book in yourself, use genuine parts, and your warranty might not be compromised
@@nicksepisode Keep receipts and take photographs as proof, too.
Hello mate. I have a question about the change of the filter, do we add some oil first in the filter before to put it in? or it should be dry and clean?
you can soak it in fresh oil first
