Prepare yourself for a long post and let’s get to it! When in the middle of a project, I was more intent on making sure everything got done correctly instead of making sure I had pictures to use in the blog later. The fact that you are saving money is an added plus.Ī final thing that I will say is that as much as I tried to take helpful pictures of how to do these procedures, they are probably lacking in quantity, quality. I feel that the more you do yourself, the more you know about your car and all its little nuances. I know some people prefer to have the dealership do these sorts of things. You can find other tutorials about how to do these, but the more examples that exist, the better.
All of these fluids are extremely harmful to your eyes and skin so it is important to protect yourself.Welcome to the first part of several posts I will have about fluid changes on the S2000. You never know what could be dripping down from the engine, battery acid, engine coolant, brake fluid, etc. We recommend wearing safety glasses whenever you are working under your S2000. If it isn't printed on the oil cap, check your owners manual for the exact type before adding new oil. Most Hondas have the oil type printed on the oil cap - it will likely be 5W-20, 5W-30, 5W-40, 10W-30 or 10W-40. If your S2000 is too low to the ground to access your drain plug and oil filter, be sure to use jack stands and safe jacking procedures before getting under your S2000.
If you can't do this, see our parts page to find a Honda S2000 oil filter wrench. For most Hondas, you can wrap an old belt around the oil filter and unscrew it by hand. This video shows you the location of your oil drain plug, oil filter, oil fill cap and dipstick in addition to the steps needed to change the oil and filter in your S2000. Most importantly, you get a chance to look around under your S2000 for potential trouble spots. When you change your own oil, you know that you are putting quality oil in your S2000 and that the filter is being changed too. This video shows you how to change the oil and oil filter in your 2005 Honda S2000.
