Hi all

3 months ago I bought an em2 2003 with 103k miles...

This is my firts honda so I dont know so much abouit theses cars..

I dont know who was the last owned, i got it in a dealer, so I want to make a maintenace or get the car to a good mechanic.. and I have some doutbs..

What kind or type of oil should I use?


I am living in Miami, does anyone know a good place to get the car? I want to check breaks, oil, filters...?

Should I change the timing belt at 110k miles ?

Thanks

 

i have a 2004 with 115,000 miles i use royal purple and royal purple filter Amsiol is better buts its really pricy. change the oil yourself its extremely easy.

 

ok, thanks bro. and what oil do u use?? 15w40, 10w30? which one is better for those miles?
thx

 

i believe honda uses 5w-20?
