Configuration-specific service and fitment facts

These sourced values are shared by the specification sheet and the maintenance guides for this exact configuration.

Coolant specification
Honda Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2, premixed 50/50 Verified
Cooling-system precautions
Never open a hot pressurized cooling system. A total-system capacity is not necessarily the amount that drains during a routine change; follow the engine-specific bleeding procedure.
Service requirements
Use Honda Type 2 premix and inspect only when cold. The 2.0 L table prints 1.26 US gal (4.64 L), including 0.20 US gal (0.75 L) remaining in the reserve tank. The gallon/litre pair is inconsistent; a verified numeric service quantity is withheld until clarified. Do not choose a fill amount by converting or borrowing the 1.5 L table.
