Interior detailing consists of sitting inside the car and cleaning it.

Are you actually proposing that because Honda designed the S2000 to have X cubic feet volume inside the cabin [where I sit and detail the inside], that I have enough room and permission from the apartment to do an oil change?

Alright then

Just resurrecting this topic as I messed up a bit while topping up and my oil is now just under the H mark, is my car ok to drive or should I get it drained to the mid level? (a big hassle so not preferable if it can be avoided!)

I havent driven the car let alone vtec'd it yet...

Any help appreciated!

Your oil is full and you're wondering if you should drain some out to make it less full? Seriously? Do us all a favor and let someone else do all the work on your car from now on. Some people on this site are just unbelievable.

Checking the oil and the acceptable oil levels are already outlined in the manual. It's not rocket science. This guy states that his oil is just below the "H". I don't see the problem here, resurrecting an oil post to ask such a silly question is equally harsh in my opinion.

I used to enjoy this site because people would post genuine problems/technical questions, not silly stuff that's been answered hundreds of times over.

How's that old saying go? "A little common sense goes a long way"

I believe it is "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."

Okay Okay.

a little harsh yes, but seriously guys, COME ON!

there are lots of things you can do to avoid the

1. Read the Manual (thats what it's there for - IN THE CAR)
2. If you have a question not answered in the manual see the FAQ's here in UTH.
3. Still unanswered - Search (Use Google: topic + s2ki.com ...i think...since the site search is FUBARd)
4. Then Post.......after reading "What NOT to Post Here"

if these 4 things were done, we would see less

It doesnt take very much room to change the oil


You dont even have to lift up the car.
