Default Minor S2000 Help

Ok i checekd on S2ki.com and did a search regarding these but came out without answers and didn't want to make a thread there as they bitch about these type of stuff. WEll i konw it sounds stupid but i forgot how to change the clock on the radio. I remember holding this buttom and changing wiht 5 and 6 buttons but wasn't working so prob doing something wrong. Can someone help me out?

Btw, i have reached about 17,200 miles. What should i do? i haev gotten an oil change but they NEVER chagned teh filter...

WHen is the usual or expected life span of a clutch? breaks? etc etc. Its an 03 s2k btw so thats about 5.* miles a year only.

They never changed the filter.. EVER?

Uhmm change it now.

As for the clock, I don't recall but the owners manual will have the answer. If you don't have the manual I'm sure someone here can tell you.

Either way I'd do an oil change again with the filter this time.

Changing the oil in the S2000 is probably 10 times easier than in an integra, and most of the vehicles that I've changed oil in. The filter is so easy to access, which was a bizzatch to get to in the integra.

Anyway, go to Honda, pick up an oil filter and do another oil change. If the oil really hasn't been changed in 17k+ miles and 4 years, take some pics of it for our entertainment purposes.

Oh, and the life expectancy of brakes and the clutch depends on how the car was driven, obviously. I've heard of people's clutches going out at 15k miles and ones that have lasted 90k.

15k miles is a scheduled maintenance interval. They should have, checked all your fluids, brakes, tires, alignment, air filter, cabin air filter(people forget this one), joints, boots, yadiyadiya. Worth all of that $69.
