How to Change the Engine Oil on a Honda Accord 2.4L | 2013-2017

[@FloridaSunMitochondria]

Finally someone that shows the torque wrench and value. Amazing how many don’t do this. Great job!!?

[@danmaster333]

That was just the guidance I needed, thank you!

I always hand tight my filter and never torque the oil nut, 5 years now no issues.

[@ShopEightyFive]

Better than over-tightening.

What I love about my wife’s 2017 Accord Sport SE is that the oil pan drain plug and the oil filter are located so close together that I can drain the oil and pull the oil filter at the same time and drain both in the same oil catch pan. Any time I replace fluid in my vehicles, I allow them to drain over night, at least 16 hours. This ensures I get as much old fluid out as possible.

[@ec9156]

Ha. I would probably forget to refill it or wife would drive it off bone dry. While waiting, have a refreshing PINT beverage and about 20 minutes later, both are empty.

Idemitsu oil, that's the way to go

[@shabba3602]

Your Accord videos are great. Any chance you could do some coolant and power steering fluid change videos? Preferably coolant. Thanks either way.

[@ShopEightyFive]

Thanks! There’s no plan to make those videos anytime soon but I’ll definitely take your suggestion into consideration.

As long as the oil level is normal you should be ok.

Do you pre-fill oil filter? Or find it not necessary on Honda 2.4L? Reason I'm asking... I used to always pre-fill. Today I changed my 15 Accord 2.4L... Had the front jacked up and let it drain for 30min. (Only because it was so HOT out today in PA 🥵) Anyway... When starting up after adding 4qts... I noticed a dry tapping/knocking for less than 1sec (or I would have shut off) slightly concerning. My guess is it took a second for the oil pressure and filter to fill... I also was able to get five courts in because of how long it drained & at an angle... Due to front being jacked up only. Car must have been bone 🦴 dry 🤔 Like I said it was less than one second... Once oil pressure built, she was purring like a Honda 👍🏼

[@kEEPITMOVIN408]

That’s what happens to me sounds like a dry start up but goes away in a sec

[@SergioTorres-dx2vd]

Congratulations, excellent video 🙌 . Does the maintenance manual recommend cleaning the fuel injectors when changing the oil? What to use to clean the injectors? thanks for your answer.

[@NEyankee]

Good video!! Thanks

[@rosewoodsteel6656]

Nice video! With my 2013 Accord 4 cylinder, the dip stick is halfway between the two indicator holes when I fill it with 4.4 quarts..

[@JP-yp2yw]

I have used the whole 5 quart bottle in my '15 Accord Sport with no issues.

You are fortunate that your generation of Honda Accord does not have all the bright polished piano black plastic that shows every bit of dust and even the faintest of scratches.

@@ShopEightyFive Tremendo video ,bien claro en cada punto de cambio ...medidas,herramientas y partes muy buen trabajo Adam Williams...Me gustaría ver el cambio del aceite de tramision CVT en accord 2.4l ex...asi también de claro con medidas herramientas y partes...awesome!!!!

[@eeinf05]

Adam awesome video! I have a 2014 Honda Accord Sport. So, when do you recommend changing the oil (go by Maintenance Minder or Mileage?). I got my last oil change done by a local mechanic on 7/17/20 using Oil Filter: FRAM XG7317 Ultra Synthetic (20,000 miles) & Kirkland Signature 0W-20 Full Synthetic. if you do follow Maintenance Minder do you have to change the oil after 1 year even with less miles driven (I'm assuming < 15K a year)

[@ShopEightyFive]

Honda recommends changing the oil when the maintenance minder light comes on. Your oil will be around 15%.

[@eeinf05]

@@ShopEightyFive Ok. What if you don't drive much then should you wait till 15% or change it if it has been over a year?

[@ShopEightyFive]

You should be ok at 15% however, it won’t hurt to change it sooner. Synthetic oil does better over its lifetime than conventional oil. The computer algorithm calculates mileage, idle time, engine temperatures, trip times, engine loads, and ignition starts and stops. It then establishes an oil change interval as low as 3,000 miles (4,800 km) and all the way up to 10,000 miles (16,000 km) and more depending on severity of conditions.

[@eeinf05]

@@ShopEightyFive Thanks for the great info.

[@leetos.4915]

@@ShopEightyFiveif the oil is at 15%…should I expect the oil color would be black or dark brown? Which is time to change right?

[@jesusr9298]

Mr.Adam Williams does accord 2013 ex 2.4l use timing belt...?water pump ,and how many miles to change it,? and serpentine belt how many miles too?and how we know they need to change it?do you has videos for these changes ...thank you.

Hi must I change the washer from oil drain bolt

[@ShopEightyFive]

Yes

[@user-ns8gw5fb2k]

When I lift my body when I change my engine oil (mission oil), do I have to put it on all four places and drain the oil? Or do I just raise the engine body and remove the oil? I have a question in Korea.

[@Wingnut353]

Raise body, drain oil replace plug, remove and replace filter, put oil back in... the angle of the vehicle is not going to be great enough to cause any issues with drainage. Always use a solid support and never trust a hydraulic jack by itself as they can drop the car on you, a cement block or jack stands can save your life in that case.

[@therealseal9754]

What oil filter wrench does this require, the one you linked isn't listed anymore

[@ShopEightyFive]

Fixed the link. Thanks for the heads up!

[@ec9156]

Change oil and filter at 50% maintenance minder which is about 5000 miles no matter what oil dino or synthetic. If you go longer, 4 cyl engine will burn 1 quart oil every 4-5k miles which Honda claims is normal, NOT. They want you to burn the piston rings, thus burns oil, won't see smoke either.

[@ShopEightyFive]

......oh ok.

[@eriks8382]

Eathdreams engines on the four cylindeds are notorious for oil dilution. 5k is stood interval

[@eriks8382]

A good interval*

[@pikasoe6919]

When it’s at 15 percent my maintenance light don’t come one

[@eriks8382]

How many points does the 17mm socket need to be?

[@ShopEightyFive]

Six preferably but twelve would work.

[@kEEPITMOVIN408]

6 is better 12 point it’s easier to strip the bolt lol

[@gavmad]

My BMW seemed too complicated for me to change the oil myself. I now have a Honda and I thought maybe I’ll see if I can change the oil myself. Now I know I’ll probably never change my own oil. Just having to jack the car up is a red flag for me.

[@Wingnut353]

Well... its worth it to know how as you wont have to hassle with going somewhere to get it changed during working hours... you can just do it in the evening after work. And you'll save some money also. It really is quite easy on a Honda... and most domestic vehicles as well.

[@mablenay]

Do you happen to know the most current part no. for Genuine Honda Full Synthetic oil? From what I understand, part no. 08798-9037 and 08798-9063 are 'discontinued'

[@ShopEightyFive]

I’m not seeing them discontinued but I’ll look into it and if something has changed, I’ll let you know. Thanks!

Don't bother with Honda oil... they are just buying it and rebranding it and up charging you for it.
