Hi
I bought 2003 SX. I like to change oil with Mobil 1 synthetic. Any recommendation. How can I look for the coolant temperature? All I see is fuel gauge, RPM and speed.
It does not come with keyless remote. Will it work with the from ebay? Do SXs also come with alarm system?

There is no coolant temperature gauge only two dummy lights. I think that you can buy the remotes for keyless entry and program them to your car. As far as i know there is no alarm system.

teal854t,

I've used Mobil 1 for years with no problems other than one item that I have noticed in any standard shift car getting Mobil 1 or other super-slick synthetics. It is so much slicker that the engine does not decelerate as quickly on shifts, making shift timing subtly different. You can buy after market gauge sets, though there isn't a whole lot of room to mount them cleanly and safely.
