OMG THANK YOU!!!! I am trying to do on my own since I lost my brother (who used to do it for me). This was very helpful. Lets see how this turns out. Crossing my fingers.
Nancy S. Macario You will do just fine Nancy just one thing before taking oil filter off get a Phillips screwdriver make a hole @ bottom of oil filter let it drip for 5 minutes then take it off a bit less messy n while you put it back not so tight like he did, wash your hands so they won’t be slippery tight the oil filter by hand after you can’t then use the wrench but for 3/4 of a turn more ok sorry about your lost any questions please reach out ok
Been debating doing this myself or having it done at a shop. This sealed the deal for me. Easiest oil change I have ever seen. Thanks for the walkthrough!
A couple things for beginners, when you first are draining the oil, remove the oil cap in the engine bay to create a smoother flow of oil to drain when you unscrew the bolt under the pan and when you are done with the oil change all together. Call a nearby auto zone or other auto parts store and ask if they will take the oil you just changed out. This way, you don’t have to have oil just sitting around in your garage.
Thanks for the video. It is right too the point. Good information. Now off to give my 2010 accord a change. First one with this car. They have been free up to this point and know here we are. Confident in my abilities to get the job done with this well informed video. Thanks again from Iowa.
Thank you so much for your video guys like you safe people so much money by showing them the easy way to maintenance the cars instead of taking it to a shop and charging you a lot of money thank you
I'm getting some oil burn after long drives but I check often it's a boutique 1 quart low at times but it drives very well and has some kick genuine honda quality 👍
Hah.. just bought the exact same oil and filter to do my first change on new (used) 08 accord and wanted to see what's up before I get into it. Cheers mate.
Thanks, nice to know what to expect. Filters often list a tightening sequence on them. This is frequently 3/4 turn from where the gasket makes contact.
Now wiper blades are a real ball buster for me since they do them for free at store and the plastic clips can break if done wrong but I will give it a go
I own a 2009 accord with i4 2.4L for a month now. Engine cap says 5w20 but my mech uses 0w20 for it. Although it runs fine and smooth but just curious if that's okay
It's fine but the engine does not require that type of synthetic oil. You should always follow what the manufacturer recommends. They designed that engine. Also the shop can make a little bit of money putting in synthetic.
All I can say is the car manufacturer that design, engineer, produces these engines does not do that. Another way of looking at it is try to find someone that can show an engine was damaged because they didn't fill the filter with oil before installing it. Good luck!
@@dial2fastWith the oil filter in the vertical position like on this engine, it just makes common sense to fill the filter when installing it ... When you start thst engine it has to run with NO oil pressure for a few seconds until the oil pump fills the filter ... Just think about it ...
Yes it'll prime the engine so your not running dry at first and it'll create a better deal! There's so much wrong with this video, ALWAYS hand tighten the oil filter never use a ratchet.
You lost credibility with me when you said to stop tightening the oil filter until it stops, AND you were using a wrench! NO ONE does that... Hand tighten only people!!!
@@mikeygrizz23 The fact you let stats dictate your thought process tells me tons. Social Media is not a FACT base. Its a trophy giving feel good platform, there are useful info on them but not always. Like this guy. You can disagree all you want but statistics do NOT replace facts!
Dear when i put 4.2us quart my stick shows oil above the high dot. I changed filter as well.. And one time i flushef my engine but stilll.. I think its bcz of vtc actuator not holding up the oil on timing chain
Should I drain some oil out if I put the whole 5quart gallon into the engine after I ran it for a bit already and it only take alittle more than 4 quarts?
I just got my 2010 Honda Accord 4 cylinder, the shop put in 5w-20 , can i switch to synthetic oil since my car has over 220k miles. It runs fine but just curious if it helps due to high mileage, i also use seafoam in my gas tank every 1k miles to help, I even read you can out it in with the oil to help clean oit the gunk. Any advice would be appreciated!
Always use the recommended oil that's for your car. Car manufacturers spend millions designing the engine to work with a specific oil. For you to switch to synthetic will not gain anything. The key with ALL cars is do the oil change every 5k miles with the recommended oil (hopefully you do this since it's new). Your engine will not build sludge and last a very long time.
Yes it will still reset to 100% even with sane old oil in it. The car will think new oil has been added. Don’t know why you would want to do that but you definitely can.
Why wouldn't you punch a hole in the bottom of the filter to allow the oil to drain out nice and clean? And why wouldn't you add oil to the new filter, given its orientation?
@@dial2fast then you're just a mediocre "mechanic". I was willing to overlook you using a wrench to tighten the oil filter, but then I noticed not warming up the engine to get the oil warm, not removing the oil filler cap _before_ draining, not filling thug oil filter, the list goes on and on. You could stand to learn a few things, starting with humility.
This guy has no idea what oil to use , just look what he dumped in his engine... If this is your first or maybe the second oil change , then yes use the full synthetic ! If the engine has 50K or more on the regular 5W30 oil , i wouldn't change over to the synthetic ! If you do your just asking for oil leaks on the engine ! The synthetic oil WILL end up on the driveway....
Hey. Thanks for the video. I own the same exact car 2010 Honda Accord Lx 4 cylinder engine. Right now the car has 65,000miles. I am thinking to change the oil to full synthetic. I went to Honda Dealership to buy 5W-20 Oil. They said they don’t make it but I can use 0W-20 Oil instead. I bought the oil 0W-20 but not sure if I should change the velocity of the oil or not. Help!
If it's a 4cyl 2.4 use a FULL SYNTHETIC 5W20 if you want your car to last longer and run smoother. It's a huge difference in the cars lifespan if you use full synthetic
And don't buy oil at dealership man just go to AutoZone or orielly or any auto store. Tell them your make and model and they'll guide you if you don't know.
Hay u did not tell them to put oil in the filler before they put it in the car. I seen people start their car n it started tapping. It there goes on straight up they need to put oil in it. Why make a video if u not showing them everything n they could damage there car. THANKS 4 THE VIDEO
Because that is something you don't need to do and it's unnecessary. The manufacturer (who designed the engine) don't do it that way. I would love to see where are all those millions of damaged engines.
It’s actually safe to add the entire 5 quarts of oil when doing this. Reason being, this generation accord with the 4 cylinder has a huge oil burning problem, you’ll burn a quart in 1,000 miles. So you’ll be at the normal level 😂
Bad info. If you lose that much oil in 1000 miles something is wrong. Those engines were some of the best ever produced by Honda. 2.4L. Try changing your pcv valve if over 100k. Only use a Honda pcv valve. May help.
@@bryanhoedt4424 oem honda PcV change did nothing for me. Car has 198,000 currently, original engine, piston rings never repaired, still burning the same amount and guess what? Zero issues with misfiring, idling, acceleration etc, car drives amazing.
You should've filled the new oil filter with oil before putting it on. If you don't it'll cause an air pocket in your filter. Making it hard for oil to go in the filter
And that's the correct way of doing it yes. The filter should be primed with oil, so it's in the same exact state as the old one, keeping both the oil volume the same and avoiding the air pocket.
I dont speak english well, but i would like to know what kind of oil do you recomended me, to use in my 2009 Accord with 110, 000 km (i don know how many miles are) the engine is very very good
Take the filter out when the pan is dry, then remove the drain bolt. Less mess since the pan is dry, and oil will not splash everywhere when the old filter comes down

You shouldn't put the oil filter back on with a wrench way to tight
Hand tight is good 👍
juiced71 that’s true. I mentioned that when I did mine
.oh so its okay if i just tighten it with my hand?
I agree. I've changed oil for 40 yrs. Wrench off and hand tight.
The service manual says to tighten it to 8 lbs of torque. That's just hand tight.

Use the oil type recommended by the manufacturer. You can switch to full synthetic if you want.

It was nice of honda to leave an extra .8 quarts in the jug for when it inevitably burns oil between oil changes

You had B14 service. Did you just do oil change or you did all other services as well?

Use 0w-20 in winter , use 5W-30 or 10w-30 in summer ,this is better way to protect engine
I heard adding oil to the filter is good before one puts the oil filter back on?
All I can say is the car manufacturer that design, engineer, produces these engines does not do that. Another way of looking at it is try to find someone that can show an engine was damaged because they didn't fill the filter with oil before installing it. Good luck!
You will want to do it if your vehicle has a turbocharger.

You heard correctly.
I like your video. please can you show me how to add brake fluid oil I have a Honda Accord car 2019
Thanks for the video but why not use full synthetic? I use 5w30 as it's a better lubricant than 5w20
Honda recommends 5w20. It's right there on the oil cap.
Use the 5w30 if you want to have oil pump issues in the future!
Thank you for your contribution. Is it not necessary to fill the filter with oil before screwing it on?
Not necessary. Factory doesn't do it, you don't need to do it.
It's not necessary. Just much better for your engine. But the author is too full of himself to agree.
Just smearing a finger dip of oil round the top of filter mate not filling it

+jmmusic231 No, took it off the ramp after the first oil full up. It was checked after it came off the ramps.
dial2fast ok,thank you
Do you have to use oil filtration wrench all the time? Will you be able to take it off by hand?
You can tighten it by hand, but make sure you turn it until it's completely tight so oil don't leak.
@@dial2fast what about taking it off to actually change it? Can I take it off by hand then as well?
To make removal easier, use a filter wrench. After the filter is used and heat cycled several thousand miles, it might be on pretty tight.
You explained the car you were working on need 0w20 oil but why did you use 5w 20 instead?
No, this car uses 5W20, but I mentioned the Accord has another that uses 0W20, so check your owners manual.

If you do the reset maintenance reminder steps you show in the video without changing the oil, would it reset to 100% if in fact it was not?
