B5 Service Light Questions
Hey guys,
Lemme start by saying I did a little searching and only came up with 1 thread that wasn't super helpful so thats why I started a thread
So my 04 TL just came up with a B5 Service light at 120k-ish miles.
I know I'm due to change my oil as its been about 6 months and 5k miles (Mobile1 oil only). Plus the during the last weekend the oil life indicator said <20% thats no biggie, I'm planning on changing it this weekend with more Mobile 1 fluid and a filter (not sure which yet, probably Honda)
What else does the B5 service include? I read something about a coolant change? I noticed my fluid is the greenish color of most other cars, so I was wondering if I actually am due to change it and if so what color is the stock fluid? Or is the green normal?
I know many of us here aren't the biggest fans of Honda fluids so is there a better one I should look into? I'm in Virginia and the climate is pretty temperate here if that helps.
I just want to get my car up to top shape because I'm heading up to Toronto next week and don't want to run into any problems.
Thanks!
