What kind of engine oil is generally used for Civic?
1 Answers
Civic uses SM or higher-grade fuel-efficient engine oil, which is suitable for commercially available engine oils at ambient temperatures. Here are some tips for choosing engine oil: 1. When selecting engine oil, you can consider the local maximum and minimum temperatures, the vehicle's grade, and its condition. 2. Engine oil with excessive viscosity will increase motion resistance and affect engine power. 3. Engine oil with insufficient viscosity cannot guarantee lubrication quality and will accelerate engine wear. 4. For engines with severe wear and larger fitting clearances, a higher viscosity grade of engine oil can be selected to enhance the sealing performance of the fittings. 5. New cars should choose thinner engine oil, while vehicles with higher mileage should opt for thicker engine oil.
