What oil?

[slickteggyGSR]

Hey just curious as 2 what oil you guys prefer I currently run mobile 1 full synthetic and was wondering if u guys think there is a better oil to run in our cars?

 

[Surferman]

Mobil 1 imo is the best and has a good price. Some people say royal purple is better but I think thats just overpriced and unnecessary. Id stick with good ole mobil 1 and filter.

castrol gtx
5w30

SRT-5. Great oil in my opinion but very pricey. I personally use mobil 1 for daily purposes.

 

[Dumpie1]

Castrol,Valvoline, Royal Purple would be some of the best choices.

I've always had bad experiences wth mobil1.

I use Mobile Delvac 15w-40 diesel oil, and I prefer Purlator PureOne filters.

Oh, and I only use OEM Honda filters.

YES!!!!! OEM= BEST

Not always the case. Honda has decided to allow Honeywell(Fram) to be an OEM manufacturer of oil filters. Everyone should by now know Fram filters are not the best.

Left to Right: Honeywell(Made in Canada), Filtech(Made in USA), Toyo Roki(Made inJapan)

Toyo Roki owns Filtech (which is in Ohio), these are the filters that you want. Only way to get a Toyo Roki any more is to order a S2000(15400-PCX-004) filter. Since the dismize of the S2000 these filters may be in short supply. The Filtech is p/n 15400-PLM-A01while the Honeywell is 15400-PLM-A02

This old info but a good read.
