Perfect instructions. Not one word and I know exactly what to do. Bravo

In this video, no word is better than words. Thanks.

Great video! I did one on my 2018 Clarity as well. I have done two of them so far at the recommended intervals, even though my car is EV 80% of the time! Oil comes out super clean. I could put it in the lawnmower! Best of luck with the channel! Keep up the great work!

Brad On Cars Thank you, it does feel like such a waste of oil based on preprogrammed interval.

There's no need to change engine oil at the "recommended" intervals. The software engineers at Honda are just lazy to distinguish between ICE and PHEV cars. Chevy Volt would keep track how much gas is actually used and calculate the oil change interval accordingly. Many Volt owners would change oil once every 2 years. For Honda Clarity, the manual said at least once a year. I think that's a good interval if you drive in EV mode 80+%.

@@myanghua Totally hey. I just do it when it's convenient since I do them myself. If I had a gas lawnmower I'd put the "used" oil in it to get some more life out of it! All the best! -Brad

I enjoyed the sounds of occasional heavy breaths you took in this video. Thanks

Awesome video. Love how clean your engine bay is and the interior is definitely daily driver clean. 😊

Very cool video. I read your other comment about how traffic in California is bad. I completely agree. I live in Long Beach and I do mostly city driving but when I get on the freeway it is ridiculous how long it takes just to travel 20 miles, around one hour. When I visit Colorado Springs, 20 miles would take like 15 minutes.

Excellent how-to video. Not sure if you've tried the 5 qt jugs of Mobil 1, but it would be cheaper than buying the individual quart bottles.

You da man. Ty for going through the trouble.

Thanks! My dealer, Economy Honda in Chattanooga, said my first would be free. From then on I’ll do them myself. Two comments: 1) Its a good practice to fill the filter with fresh oil. 2) Be sure to document and keep receipts for the oil and filter to protect your warranty.

at 5:49 that 3/8 square hole is your trans fluid plug. You're welcome

Thank you for sharing.

The oil looks very new. Is that normal? Great video like no words...

What ramps are those? Got a link or name at least ? Nice Honda,.. never heard of it. ( been looking at used Prius as 2nd car ). Sub’ed off your vid on McGuires for phone/tablet screen. Thanks again. Cheers.

do you think there is room for a Fumoto valve without an adaptor?

What kind of oil filter tool is that?

What size is the oil filter wrench

What's the oil filter part number?

Great video, and impressive one handed oil change ;) Though I don't understand how you kept the car & engine so clean for 9300 miles...

Electric driven engine is why it's so clean. Mine is 3 yrs. old @ 75K miles, this is first oil change other than one done @ 5k miles done by dealer, (& I don't realy count that, as it was clean oil they replaced). I could go even longer on the same oil as it doesn't look that bad, but after 2.5 yrs. I felt like I should do SOMETHING! NOTE: Runs mostly on electric power with gas power for last 5 - 10 miles of daily commute.

Use your head unit, vehicle settings, maintenance reminder, reset all items. You have to be in park to get to this menu.

Next time you should add some oil to the oil filter so when the engine starts its not a dry start. Over all very clean and simple oil change for the car. People would be crazy to not do it themselves

Thank you.

Thank you

How often do you need to change your oil? Should I calculate the mile I have drive on gas? I am guessing 6K of gas miles I have driven?

Jason Cunningham For sure, it is a very different kind of car. Fit and finish is not as good as the Accord, but it is eerily quiet when running full electric mode. With the rebates in California, the car is very affordable and returns insanely good MPG while not being slow like a Prius.

My Clarity does the same thing. I rarely fill up the tank, but when I do it says that I have over 1,000 miles, which is obviously not correct. I don't particularly care because I almost exclusively use the battery indicator.

Does anyone know what the part is called that needs removed on the bottom to get to the oil drain plug? Mine is damaged and needs replaced.

How do you reset the car so the service A01 notification stops coming on?

I would usually run it a bit before closing up the skid plate, just to ensure that there are no leaks. Great directions otherwise.
