Hey everyone, just wanted some recommends on oil change process. Is it possible to change oil on 2012 tsx without ramps or jack? I used to do this on my civic easily but not sure if Incan maneuver the tsx. I would prefer to do it with ramps but have heard jacks are easier. Thoughts? I see the ramp as easy to drive up, put wheel blocks down and get under there quick. Thanks everyone.

 

I personally would just jack the front up, put a blocker infront of the tires so they car doesnt move when trying to get the filter out and u should be good.

 

That would be easiest. I worry about the jack points of the car though for some reason.

 

i personally prefer jacks haha

 

Just lift the whole front end at the front cross member then put the jack stands on the side jack points. Only takes 2 min if that.

Is your car an MT or AT? I wouldn't do the ramps with an MT

 

i've done ramps and jack, i prefer jack. the TSX is too low for alot of ramps, and lining them up is a bitch. theres 2 DIY's up and i believe they show the right place to jack it up

 

I did mine on ramps, but either way should be fine. I doubt it's possible without lifting the car even if you really wanted to -- the filter is under the engine.
