Rep Power: 0 OK guys dont use Gtx or Motorcraft .. motorcraft is a ford product so we dont want to do that .. personally I use AMS oil higly recommend it. it is expensive but remember it is your Honda so she is definatly worth the extra bucks.. and 5w20 is recomended I thought this to be false as well but its right on the OEM oil cap and honda claims that increases engine life by offering better start up performance

Rep Power: 0 Want the best oil on the planet? Check it out: Royal Purple. That's what I use, and I can vouch for it.

i don't know...doesn't 10W40 seem kinda thick for our cars? (i used to use that grade in my old car in the winter since it was thicker and helped with the leaks..20W50 in summer[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG])
