Engine oil OEM Honda or ZIC

I would recommend a hybrid crv, great gas mileage, reliable, plenty of room in the back as well as cargo. I had a 2022 crv exl before trading it in for an EV, only maintenance I did over 25k miles was oil changes, tire rotations, changed wiper blades and repaired a tire leak. Absolutely loved it but traded it in because charging EV is cheaper and has less maintenance.

Before 2023 i was using zic 0w20 but caltex has newer technology

Honda has their own which you can get from any Honda dealership (oil is blended by Idemitsu Pakistan). This is the cheapest, but still good quality and great value for money.

Used this for my old Alterra that made it to 250k mileage. Good budget option.

Ficou mais gostoso na última troca com óleo original 0w20.

I’ve always done 5K Miles with synthetic. Honda CRV almost at 400k. Honda Element almost at 300k.

I just use OEM Honda oil, 0w-30.

Yes I have used this in my 2011 insight, it's a good product but I found it very expensive without any stand out benefits .

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).

I dont know about the newer 1.5t in the crv's, but im getting rid of mine because of the oil dilution issue. Sent out an oil sample and it came back with 8.2% dilution on oil that had 2k miles on it with 0 idle time. All the technical service bulletins have been done and \"nothing\" is wrong with the car.
