  • honda dio oil change and other DIY on honda dio

    I'm currently using my girl friend honda dio since couple of weeks, i wanted to change the oil and any oil filter if necessary, not sure how to do it.
    I know how to chage the oil on a bike but on dio not sure about the which is where. So could some one help me on this with some pictures if possible
    Also please keep me posted on the type of oil i must take into consideration.

    Mods please move the thread to appropriate section if necessary, thanks

    The above thread should help.

    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

        Why don't you just go over and ask? And why do you want to do it yourself when they do it for free?

            Yes they do it for FREE (and refuse to accept tips) - i had it done a couple of days ago. BUT ensure you use only 750-800ml and not more (i.e. the entire 1L bottle). I use a paper cup that's 100ml (nicked from office ) and remove two cup fulls and transfer it into another empty engine oil bottle (used for top up's or general lubing on my bikes)
            Use the Shell AX5 - total VFM and i am not sure if they will change oil from another brand.

            The method to change oil is the same as for Activa and link for the same has been posted by Antz. There is no oil filter that has to be changed but there is a oil strainer screen which you can ignore for now (IMO i've never seen it hold back anything since i change my oil regularly between 2000-3000km)
