Oil change coming up!
And I know I should be using 10w-30 (right?). So now the question is, which oil? I've always used Mobil 1 in our european cars and it's been good. But I've been reading the FAQ's on here and seems a lot of people use Amsoil too. My next question is should I use fully synthetic or not or what? Sorry for the newb questions this is a whole new car for me so go easy on me

10w30 is a good weight. If your car has over 10k miles, you can use a full synthetic which will allow you to up the drain interval to around 7500 miles. I generally change at 6k though for piece of mind. Mobil 1 is a great oil and is readily available everywhere. This is what I use. Also, you can just use honda oil filters. pcx-004 is the end of the part number for the correct filter. Unlike your VWs and Audi, OEM Honda parts are often recommended OEM pads, clutch disc, filters, etc are excellent parts

10w30 is the correct oil. Sythentic is good but not necessary. As for oil filters, I would recommend the factory Honda Oil filter. Make sure its the "PCX" filter. Thats the newer design made specifically for the S2000. You can order it from one of our board sponsors:
