5W-20 vs 5W40
Guys,
what oil do you put on your TSX? Here in Europe where I live the climate is quite like the New England's climate, though winters are not that harsh. The temperatures in the coldest winter days are around -5C (23F). In the summer the max. is about 35C (95F). Honda services here put in almost all Hondas 5W-40, it is thicker and quite good for the summer. How about the winter? Honda recommends 5W-20. Since I drive only 3000 miles a year and change the oil once a year it should fit all four seasons.
