Which oil for my Honda Civic?
hi . i have a1999, honda civic1.4 petrol engine. and wondered what would be the best oil to use. i have been useing titan mc10 40 ?
Our answer:
Hi Dave,
The brand isn't of utmost importance, but likewise, we'd recommend you go for one of the big brands rather than the cheapest oil you can find. For a temperature range of between -20 and 35 degrees C, you should be using SAE 10W-30 (API/ACEA SJ/A2), though 10W-40 is fine too, as that covers from -20 degrees up.
