Default No Manual, need a couple specs for EX v-tech. Thanks.

I need to know the engine oil quantity for my '02 EX v-tech. It is 5W-20 oil right?
Also, what else should be done for 40k maintainance?

Thanks.

also do a rotate if its been a while and coolant service is reommended at 45k...check your brake pads while the wheels are off

Everybody just leave it with the VTECH, v-tec, vtec, ect.

If you have a pre 00, you will need 5w30 instead of 5w20.

why does every thread with v-tech or vtek in it turn ito some gay little argument? he spelled vtec wrong WHO CARES we all know how its spelled

anyway...5w20 or 5w30 is fine...i worked at honda and our oil pumps used 5w30 theres not much difference

Since we're all going crazy about spelling errors...

It's actually etc., not ect.

true it's gonna happen regardless I guess as long as you don't flame and keep the of-subjectness to a minimum then it's good to let the dude know I just don't even say anything anymore cause there's at least a newb a day that makes that error
