I got my oil, oil filter, and transmission fluid done at the dealer today. You know when someone drops their car at dealership they do free inspection and say this needs to change etc etc.
They said car need coolant service, also the brake fluids but they didn’t mention about engine air filter, or cabin air filter which I think needs to change because was pretty dirty. Whatever, I directed how much will engine filter cost to me if I wanted to get it changed, They quoted me $80. All they do is open the clips, take the old one out, and put the new one back on like 2 mins process.
I found some engine air filters on Amazon. I said maybe someone got one of the product I found or have heard about it (like if it’s good or not, cuz the reviews of products all good)
Link
Link1. (I think imma go with this)
Link2 (and this brand it has good comments too, also price same as others but I guess this one is one of the returns to warehouse cuz it says boxed damaged
the other thing I’m going to do is coolant adding some coolant. I don’t think it’s going to be a problem but to drain it will if I need equipment other then my hand. I watched some 10th gen civic coolant drain video some of them did have twist off plug, so people who making the video didn’t need any equipment. He just did unscrewed the plug with his hand. Is it possible to do it on mine? Does 2016 civic lx have plastic trim valve? If it does what brand coolant do you guys recommend to me? (I don’t think it’s cost dealer more then $50 cuz they asking $200)
About the brake pumps. I could buy handheld vacum pump and add new fluid but the only thing is do I really have to take all these wheels and flush the leftovers in those brake lines? Will the fluid I added refresh the leftovers I’m the brake lines? If I don't remove those fluids from the brake lines, does it make sense to have done it?
