What type of oil should be used for a Honda Civic?

[MariaMarie]

Honda Civic requires semi-synthetic or higher-grade engine oil with a viscosity of 5W40. Here, "5" represents the oil's ability to withstand external temperatures as low as -30 degrees Celsius; "W" stands for winter; and "40" indicates that the kinematic viscosity standard at 100 degrees Celsius is 40. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, serves multiple functions for the engine, including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption and cushioning. The Honda Civic offers a variety of models to cater to the preferences of users in different countries, including three-door hatchbacks, hardtop coupes, hybrid versions, and five-door sedan versions. In terms of body dimensions, the Honda Civic measures 4649mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1416mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm.
