    Oddly enough I bought a 2019 Honda Accord Sport 2.0T, drove it to Florida and back...... It was definitely time for an oil change....... Guess what I did?

    Make sure you use Kleenex to get all the oil power steering fluid out.

    When I was young I use to do this - older mechanics advised me not do this because too much oil may wick away from the lower rod and main bearings causing a dryer start up...? since I've been told this I don't completely drain all the oil and refill new oil as soon as possible and always do frequent changes...don't know if there's any truth to this but it made me think and this was along time ago so I couldn't goggle it....lol

    On filters that allow, we fill as full as possible before installing the new one.

    Never heard of it, but I wouldn’t say I’m an “older mechanic”...Rick?
    I drain it all out with the car leaning towards the drain plug for good drainage, also sometimes I’ll toss a little fresh oil in just to clear out the bottom of the pan
