im using royal purple and havent had to top it off. Fluids are easy to do yourself if you have a garage, I'd recommend Campus Honda for bigger things.

I haven't had to top off at all. How much oil are you burning, and what kind, weight, etc?
I have only had the car for a month so not sure I am burning any. Most articles I have been reading though state that you should check the oil with each gas fillup as they burn oil quite a bit.

I believe most of the oil burning issues were with the early F20 motors. The F22's don't tend to burn oil like the earlier engines, from what I've heard. Mine burns next to none (less than 1/4 of a litre per 5000kms)

Gee you think your's is louder? I thought mine was pretty loud. I was in 4th and trying to keep it quite. Mine gets very loud when I am coasting or when I am hitting the gas. It quites right down if I just keep the gas even or if I am idling.

I live out in Colwood. I was out that way paying my hockey dues for the upcoming season. Anytime though I can meet up with you. Hey I like the wing it looks sharp.
