Well as the title says. Where is a decent place that some of you have taken yours? Oh and i kinda posted it somewhere else except i dont even know where i just pressed search and it came up so i pressed it lol -.- anyway whats the difference from a major and minor service? Is it worth getting an early major? OHHHH and im looking more at honda dealerships but would consider going to a different place to get it done.

just do it yourself. the only "hard" part is probably valve adjustment, and even that looks pretty simple.

fuel filter may be a bitch to get to though

hi guys
i need help with engine oil. Im currently using castrol 10-w40 oil but ive noticed that the s2k is using still to much oil. the car has done 120,000kms now and ive been told that apparently i need thicker oil such as 10-w50 and so on. Im hopefully going down to a honda dealer in essendon tomorrow to get some advice on oil but would appreciate some input and advice from the real honda drivers.
