Type of Oil

What type of engine oil do you guys commonly use??? Syn, non-Syn????? Honda or non Honda oil filter??? Reason I am asking is because I just got my car a week ago and want to go ahead and change the oil so that I know it is fresh, just wanted to know what you guys are using.

Now the energy you wasted typing just that, you could have told him.

It really doesnt matter what kind you use. Alot prefer Mobil 1 synthetic or amsoil, Filters well thats more up in the air. Honestly any will work.

If you use the search button, you will find alot of threads and can base your own opinion on what you read

not everyone wants to "track" their front wheel drive car like you - in that case Mobil 1 synthetic is more than good enough for 99% of every car out there. the others being "far superior" is a long shot if you ask me
