What Is The Best Engine Oil For A Honda Accord?
From my extensive research into each and every car engine specification, plus my 25 years of knowledge and experience as a car mechanic, I have put together the top three best engine oils for a Honda Accord for models made before and after 2011.
Best Engine Oil for Honda Accord (2011 – )
Honda recommends a 0W-20 motor oil, which I agree with. I’ve done hundreds of oil changes on Honda Accords over the years and always use this type of engine oil.
