Engine oil for h23a2?

Post by Peachy » Sun May 18, 2014 8:54 pm

I am going to need some very soon, so just wondering what is the best to get for my lude. I currently use 10 stroke 40 semi sy. Going to order of ebay so if anyone can help that would be great! Its a h23a2 auto 4 gen-Those that dont know still :D

Whats the best outthere for my car and for performance on ebay? Also is 10 stroke 40 the right oil to use at this time of year? If i change the above will i have to drain current oil, or can i just put in with the 10-40 allready in there

Yes as i keep saying im still learning... :oops:

10w40 Semi synthetic is the correct oil. I personally use 5w40 Fully synthetic in all my Hondas. But 10w40 would be spot on :D ;)

Well tbh oil is oil IMO :lol: . We use shell at our work, Honda always recommend Castrol. I use Triple QX from Euro car parts, just because I get it cheap. Change it every 6k so I think it does the job well. If I had the cash I would go Castrol Edge :D :D
