I just used my hand. It wasn't on very tight at all.

 

Oh and I highly suggest letting the car cool down thoroughly. The oil filters get mighty hot to hold...

 

And another thing, with 15% left, it's got a lot to do. I think I did another 800km after I saw the wrench and changed my oil.

when I changed my oil, the oil life just changed to 5% the day before.

From what I can tell, I should be able to do 8000km before an oil change, or from what little I drive, maybe a year.

 

I'll let you know if I can find someone selling just the bracket....doesnt seem likely though from what I can tell.


A rubber kitchen glove also works great for getting the oil filter off if its tight.....gives you amazing grip.

 

Thanks guy's. I downloaded the instructions with images, looks pretty straight forward. I used to do my own oil changes back when I was younger, but honestly havn't done one in quite a while.

OK so I need a crush washer and can get that at Honda correct? Filter wrench I can pick up, and a socket for the plug. Says I should get 6 litres of oil too (just over 5). I already have a 6 pack of K&N oil filters that came with the car. You say Mobile 1 synthetic for HP engines in a 10w-30...?

I will let you know how I make out..., thanks again

 

just the piece of glass would be usefull to me.
mine has a deep scratch in it.
lemme know if you dont need it.

 

You mean me Kevin?

Honor thie forum member. Ha-ha.

How much was the s2000 new lit up one? where did you get it?
maybe ill buy one too if the price is right.

 

I got it for 178.00 and that included shipping. Customs hit me for another $21.00 though once it got here. I hope to install it this week so you can see it at the next meet.

 

my gosh. 200$ for a chunk of plastic. ill just buy your piece of plastic you're not using anymore.
im def not paying anywhere near 200$ for it tho. I'll tell you that right now haha.
