Engine oil Mobil or OEM Honda
My 02 Avalanche has has mobile 1 full synthetic it's entire life, and has 750k miles on the original engine. Never been opened or rebuilt. Piston slaps like a diesel on start up, but still running great.
I have a 2023 Civic Si.
I did every oil change at around 8k miles which is when my maintenance minder popped up, even though the dealer recommended every 5k. No issues ever, now at 46k miles.
Mobil1 0w-40 Full Synthetic
I use mobil 1 on my 2007 k24 I\u2019ve been the only owner
I'll stick to Honda coolant, mtf, and power steering fluid but oil I go with Mobil 1.
Just switched to Mobil1 from using whatever the dealer uses and my car runs so much smoother. Mobil1 from here on out.
Mobil 1 FS is the absolute best you can give your car, in my humble opinion, but any modern fully synthetic will be more than enough.
5-30 mobile one. Thats the only brand of oil I let touch my cars.
I ran 10W-50 and 10W-60 for a few years in an old and beaten up Honda in the hope of reduce oil consumption to avoid having to open the engine. Long story short: it's not harmful, it's an expensive gimmick, the only real-life effect is fuel consumption will slightly worsen and that Honda had occasional issues with VTEC (a well known issue in those engines when running high viscosity oils).
The mobil one was like some kind of extended use oil. It said it was good to go for like 20k miles or something lol. The engine burned a quart of it in the 10k miles I felt safe running it for
