    Thanks a lot for this video. I had a civic 7th gen and serviced that myself twice,great car....great car. Now I have an 8th gen, I didn't do it myself since I thought the undercover had to be taken off in order to get to the sump plug. I will service it myself next time. However, the other fluids I will leave to the pros.

      @@eddgreen9376 they don't typically bother making 10w20 or 5w20 oils for the EU market. It's easier to just make everything 0w20 and sell it internationally regardless of the climate.

    I noticed that you don't have the silver metal under tray. I have one on mine I just checked. So I know what to take off when I service it.

      I got my 1.8 petrol 8th gen civic down to 5.1 litres per 100kms. That was mainly motorway driving. However I get around 6.5 litres per 100 Kms mixed driving. And 7- 8 litres per 100 Kms for city driving.
