Wait a minute here. The PCX oil filter has one extra hole compaired to the standard honda oil filter. I checked and jiffy lube and my local shop don't have an oil filter that has that kind of flow so I always buy a honda PCX!


Oh I thought you were a guy until the end, I almost started laughing.

nice to see women can't change oil too =)

This just happened. I rolled my S2000 into my garage door

I backed up into my garage so I could do some detailing. After applying some polish, I notice the car is touching the garage door. I look, and I notice that the car is in first gear, and of course, the handbrake is not on I jumped into the car, and backed up, and lucky for me, not a scratch on the car.

Just goes to show no matter how careful you are, $%!( happens

First time changing oil I stripped the oil pan bolt. I ending up buying a brand new oil pan, and then had to pay for installation. Luckily I got hondamanwill from this site, and he did it for way cheaper than Honda. It was a $600 mistake.

Welcome to s2ki Ms Beautiful! Don't worry about the oil change. At least you tried and hopefully learned for next time :thumup:. There are tons of people on here that don't attempt to do any work on their car

BTW, nice color and MY!
