I did an oil change on my 2004 Accord today and I did not need to jack it up. I used swivel attachments that allowed the hand grip of the breaker bar to point 180 degrees towards the front while the socket was on the drain bolt. Just a strong turn toward the passenger tire and it loosened. Also the oil filter was easily accessible from the side. Just turn the wheels towards the passenger side all the way. I put my oil filter wrench cap on my long breaker bar and it was loosened. After the oil filter was loosed I finished I unscrewing it from the top. I also was able to screw on and tighten the new oil filter from the top. No jacking required. Of course because the car sits so low it’s a bit tricky to make sure the socket stays on the drain bolt while your hand slides down the handle part of the breaker bar so you can turn it because there’s only enough room for one arm/hand. But I managed.

You make the best practical videos on Honda procedures on KZbin. I have a 1998 Honda Accord V/6 which has been a great vehicle. I reset the maintenance reminder light on the instrument panel but don't know if the newer Hondas like the 2004 require this. I haven't seen anyone mention how to reset the reminder light on you Tube and thought it should be mentioned. I also keep a written record of date and mileage of any procedure I perform. Thanks for your great videos!
@BigDog500015 жыл бұрын
On these Accords you just press and hold the trip button, turn key to on position and then continue holding trip button for 10 seconds. This should be just like your 1998 Accord. I thought I included it in this video, maybe I forgot. Newer Hondas can be reset with a factory capable scan tool.

Apparently Honda doesn't like to see you change your own oil anymore. I have a 10th gen 2020 Accord 2.0T. First they hid the front and rear jacking points. The jacking points do exist, but they made the front one especially hard to get to. Not sure *how* you would winch this vehicle either. Then they threw in two covers to be removed just to access the oil pan and filter. Would be great to do a video of oil change on 10th gen. 👍

Hi, I have a Honda Accord 2004 2.4L with 160K miles. I change the oil every 5k miles but when I checked the oil level it is just under low dot. Maybe because the motor burns oil?
@BigDog500015 жыл бұрын
Yes very common for those 2.4L engines to burn oil (if it isn't leaking). I would check the oil at least every 1,000 miles and top off as necessary. If you do that, those are good engines and will generally go a long time. Continually running the engine low on oil can cause issues with the timing chain and VTEC solenoid on those Accords.

Quick question on oil change please. I plan to put the pennzoil ultra synthetic oil on my 2007 Accord v6 3L since Walmart has a great price on the 5w20. My question is if I go ahead with the ultra full synthetic oil, at what interval should I make the next oil change? Would it be the regular 3000 - 5000 miles or can I wait till the 10,000 mile interval? What will happen to the oil change percentage % indicator on the dashboard? Will it be as per the next date interval or as per the oil level or as per the miles after you reset? Assuming I get a minimum of 10,000 miles or a year (which ever comes first) will the oil level % indicator adjust itself now that the full synthetic oil is in the car?
@BigDog500014 жыл бұрын
How far you should go on an oil change (and what type of oil) is very subjective and will get lots of differing opinions. Oil is relatively cheap and regular oil changes are the best way to keep an engine running good (in my opinion). I do not go more than 5,000 miles between oil changes on my own vehicles regardless of oil type. Unfortunately, many owners that go 10,000 miles on an oil change never check oil level and of course it if gets low it can cause issues. The oil life indicator (maintenance minder) does not know what kind of oil is in the engine (or if there is any oil at all). It is simply a computer program that looks at certain driving conditions and miles since it was last reset.
@jamesrivt Жыл бұрын
do you really get all the old oil out while the car is jacked on a angle like that? should the whole car be flat in the air? just wondering.
@cliffords.8341 Жыл бұрын
@jamesrivt Because the drain plug is on the rear of the oil pan and he has the front jacked up, this will ensure you get as much oil out as possible because the engine is angled up from the front. If the engine was level, it wouldn't allow all of the oil to drain out. Basically wherever the drain plug is located you want to raise the vehicle on the opposite side to get the drain plug hole at a lower level to ensure you get as much oil out as possible. Also the engine must be warmed up so as much impurities are suspended in the oil so that it comes out of the engine with the oil.

@BigDog500014 жыл бұрын
1 quart every 300 miles is excessive. Thicker viscosity oil or adding an oil thickener can help some (but is not great for engine) but generally when it is burning oil that bad the engine needs to be taken apart and fixed. I would continue to monitor the oil daily and see if it continues to burn oil at the same rate before doing anything drastic.

I would check engine oil again (a couple times) *on a flat level surface after vehicle is turned off for at least 5 minutes*. If it is overfilled I would drain a little bit out (it is tricky to time but it can be done). Worst case scenario is all the oil drains out and you refill engine to correct level.
