How Often Should the Civic's Engine Oil Be Changed?
1 Answers
Civic engine oil should be changed every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months. Points to Consider When Choosing Engine Oil: 1. Engine Requirements: Choose engine oil based on the engine's requirements. There is no need to use overly advanced oil in engines with lower requirements, nor should lower-grade oil be used in engines with higher requirements. 2. Choose Multi-Grade Oil: Multi-grade oil is economical, has a long lifespan, and is highly efficient, providing better protection for the engine. Due to the characteristics of multi-grade oil, it may appear darker earlier or have lower oil pressure compared to regular oil, both of which are normal. 3. Viscosity Selection: If the engine is in good condition and the seasonal temperature is low, it is advisable to use oil with lower viscosity to ensure smooth oil flow. In high-temperature seasons or when the engine is severely worn, using high-viscosity oil helps form an oil film and reduces engine wear.
