Due to problems with fuel contamination of the engine oil on these honda engine's, avoid topping it up..add the recommended 3.7 quarts of oil
For anyone who is not a mechanic, please do not add 5 quarts to a 1.5L engine. IT WILL RUIN YOUR ENGINE! The oil capacity for 1.5L engine is 3.4 quarts without changing the oil filter and 3.7 quarts with a new oil filter. I REPEAT, DONT NOT add 5 quarts to your engine!
Yea, i didnt know these engines had problems with fuel contamination before hand, its best to not top it up to the full mark as i did
Who the hell is that dumb?
thanks even though he told us exactly how much to put 💪🏾
What if you accidentally added a little too much like 3.9-4.0 quarts with filter? Should you drain some?
@@STILLNIGHTPEARL 0.3 quart extra oil not gonna hurt anything
I have done over 300 oil changes on my own cars over my 45 years of car ownership (just did the Odyssey yesterday and planning on the Civic today). From my young days of making the typical mistakes on my old beat up Vega and Thunderbird (forget to put oil plug back in, filter gasket stuck on mount plate, wrong filter in box and didn't compare filter number/mount pre-install). I decided to watch this to pick up and tips and tricks from a pro. You are good at providing practical tips and useful guidance quickly without alot of filler, so it is always useful to watch your videos even for something I have alot of experience with. Lotta good stuff in here for the beginner and experienced DIYer. I like the dry rag for grip & hand-tighten only, the filter wrench selection tips, and the half filter prefill on angled filters to preload oil while avoiding spills. Good stuff as usual. Keep it up and thanks!
Thank you🙂 i really appreciate it
Nice simple and precise video !! 👌
THANK YOU, YOU THE MAN!!!!! I liked and subscribed 🔥
Thank you🙂 i really appreciate it
Breezed through my first oil change in my '18 Accord. Thx!
Thats awesome! Great job🙂👍
Thank you for the video, man. Just bought this car about 5 months ago and have my first oil change due. Appreciate the tips!
You're a hero about the maint reqd light reset!
Glad to be able to help🙂
Great video. The only thing I would like to add is that you may unscrew the oil fill cap and release the airlock for better drain flow.
Thank you🙂 yea thats true..only reason i dont is i kinda like the controlled flow i find it less messy that way least for certain vehicles
i’m
Excellent video ! Thank you
Bro thanks for your videos, always good to check em out before I work on my car. You’ve help me with my Silverado and now with my Accord! Thanks sir! Also is 3.5 quarts ok for the 1.5?
Thank you! Great & informative video
Thank you🙂
Thank you made it seems pretty straightforward.
Thank you🙂
I think oil change is pretty much straight forward.
Thanks for the sizes
I ALSO LIKED AND SUBSCRIBED!!!
Good suggestion to replace the crush washer. I replace the drain bolt every 2-3 oil changes on both of my Chevrolet Equinoxes.
Thank you🙂..yea those drain bolts have that rubber seal..they do tend to last longer as long as the rubber seal does tear..i do the same replace em after a few uses.
I’ve been doing my own oil change for at least 20 years and I’ve never replaced the drain bolt nor washer, lol.
Since it’s takes 3.7 what is you just put in the 4quarts would it be ok? I mean it’s just .3
Nice video, only thing is I prefer use oem oil and filter 🙏🏼
Thank you🙂 yea some of my customers prefer the same👍
Does this work for LX trim?
Thank you so much for the video! Do you know where I can find the clips you mentioned here 0:43?
amzn.to/3mhYjyG either here, ebay or the honda dealership parts dept.
What happens if I added all the container
Is oil for the hybrid the same? I’ve heard some oils are not good for Honda what oil you recommend?
Well they may use different viscosity oil depending on the year..but they do run best with full synthetic oil..i would prefer to use the mobil 1 full synthetic..but there are a lot of good oil out there
Did the new washer come with the oil filter? & if not what size washer do need ?
No, its not included..and i normally include the link for the crush washer in the description
Hit that engine with Super Clean.
Is it true you should change the oil on this car every 3k instead of the suggested 5k to avoid the oil dilution?
Yea anything on the 2016's and up i probably would change the oil more frequently..since it is a pretty big issue on the 1.5t and 2.0t
Why the change of car air filter?
@ 2:07, can you tell me where I can find these washers to replace every oil change?
amzn.to/3sdhfBL
Ok so now youre giving a different amazon link for them washers???
I have a 2018 Accord touring with 17500 miles after 4 and a half years. I change oil every year but I just got a reminder that my oil was at 15% after just 1000 miles and 10 months. Does this sound right?
They got some weird new method on these vehicles where the computer calculates the oil life based on time since last oil change, miles driven so thats why the oil percentage doesnt quite work as they would in previous vehicles where the maintenance light would automatically come on every 5k miles..more-so since that generation honda has a problem with oil dilution so they dont want oil to be in the engine so long
What size was the crush washer
It should be linked in description
Are you getting oil seepage through the valve cover gasket?
I havent noticed any..but i do know it happens often on the 2.0t
@@backyardchevy328 I'm getting some on my 1.5t. wondering if the dealer has been overfilling the oil, or my gasket is already bad. 18k miles only.
@@JollyFlys yea that should definitely be fixed under warranty in that case
Thanks for the video. 0:27 Jack stand on the tow hook - is this safe? I'm having difficulties finding a good place to put jack stands on my 2018 Accord. I jack up the lift point behind the driver-side wheel, but I can't seem to put my Pro-LifT T-6903D jack stand on the pinch weld a little to the right of that lift point (which is what I see some other people do)... The jack stand seems to push into the carpeted underside here.
Thank you...yes the tow hook bolts up to the subframe in the front and is a strong support..but i leave both the jack and stand stand together..that area where the cutout is just behind where i lifted it? It looks like it might be what its meant for but id have to verify just to make sure..i wouldnt wanna recommend that spot and have it bend the panel in or something
@@backyardchevy328 Yes, the cutout behind the lift point you used is where I saw jack stands placed in another 2018 Accord oil change video. Thanks again, I've been watching a lot of other videos recently on how to change the oil, and your guide is definitely the best... Very comprehensive.
@@chaodahh thank you i appreciate it...next week i might end up doing the front brakes on this accord so ill be sure to check em out how sturdy they are and find the best support points
I just got the car back for the brakes and i didnt like that spot behind the jack, i found a better spot where to put the jackstand and i should have the video about front brakes on this car two weeks from now to show that spot
@@backyardchevy328 Thanks for following up, looking forward to the vid!
You Recommend advanced fuel economy over extended performance mobil 1?
I like em both..but as far as extended performance oil, i would never wait so long between oil changes so it kinda nullifies the point of getting oil meant to last 15k miles...while advanced fuel economy has aditives that keep the oil viscosity thinner to supposedly save gas but not sure its at all noticeable...i guess if i had to choose between both id prefer the extended performance
Backyard Chevy I went with economy like your video!
@@ohhchuta great oil also🙂👍
Backyard Chevy thank you for your video and fast replies! Going to change my oil here in about 30mins!
@@ohhchuta anytime🙂 hopefully everything goes smoothly
Why did you have to pour 5 qt if the tank is only 3.4 qt capacity?
Well its 3.7quarts with filter replacement..but ive always like filling to the full mark on the dipstick...but on this vehicle u actually wanna avoid that..since its got a issue with fuel seeping past the rings which can increase oil level
2019 accord exl? 1.5t
Yes should be same procedure
I thought you should only put like 3.7 litres of engine oil in 1.5 accord. ?
Yea, some do have a problem with oil dilution cause of the fuel getting past the rings into the oil..so it would be best to put just the 3.7l
@@backyardchevy328 yeah I was just wondering ohh no did he just put all 5L into the 1.5 engine
@@sheheryarkhan5567 i was actually keeping an eye on the level and actually was at or below throughout the time til the next oil change, cause i wanted to keep an eye on if that was an issue with it
I followed every step and my car absolutely shit out on me. It says there’s a transmission issue and it literally won’t go into gear. Had to get towed. I don’t blame you, it may be my fault but do you know why this may have happened?? I don’t want them to tell me I need to buy a new transmission when I know that can’t be the issue because I just changed the oil. I have only 34k miles on the car
U drained out the transmission fluid instead of the engine oil most likely..they should just have to refill it but the other concern would be if u drained the transmission fluid did u add engine oil to the oil that was already in there
So it took 5 quarts?
Well it ended up taking 5 quarts to get to the full mark..but it depends on how well it drains..and on those hondas it has problems with oil dilution where the fuel mixes with the oil and causes oil level to rise..so maybe stick with the 4 to 4.5 quarts
@@backyardchevy328 ok thanks. Great vid. I gotta do my wife’s accord this week.
@@Pinozcyclezandridez thank you🙂 hopefully all goes well..good luck
You said your going to put 3.7 quarts of oil and that is going to be the capacity. But later you put the rest of what was left in the bottle. The bottle label says 5 quarts, was this bottle not new when you started or did you remove some? I did my kids car oil change with my kid and we used only 4 quarts and that is it. Thankyou for the video.
Well i added a lil less than half a quart to the filter..then added the 3.7 quarts to the car making it just above 4 quarts in engine..then i started it so it built up oil pressure and filled oil filter completely...then waited about 10 mins for oil to settle..and when i checked dipstick it showed level to low mark..so low to full mark is about a quart missing so added the remainder which was about .8 of a quart
@@backyardchevy328 thank you for your reply. I put 4 quarts in my kid's car and it was on the full mark. I'll measure again tomorrow on a more even surface.
@@adrpals2324 thank you for the support🙂 ..yea it can vary on the filter used and how long it drained and if drained when warm or cold etc..
The 1.5 liter engine calls for 3.7 quarts. I was taught to go by the documented capacities requirement and not the dip stick as dip sticks can vary. I could see adding 4 quarts but it looks like you added 5 quarts. Unless you have the 2 liter engine in my opinion you added too much.
@@dansams1902 well i did find it odd that to get to the full mark it took all 5 quarts..from a 3.7 quart stated in manual...but i do go by dipstick just due to the fact i do oil changes on older vehicles and if people dont maintain em or check em often and they burn oil it can cause them engine problems..so putting it on full mark kinda helps add that extra layer of safety net for em
Jeffy lube didn’t do that for me🤬🔥🔥🔥🔥 they lie
Resetting the maintenance mode? Were u able to reset it?
