Honda Oil Change Types

Honda is world-renowned for manufacturing vehicles with world-class reliability, durability, and longevity. Every Honda model with an internal combustion engine requires oil to keep the engine's internal moving parts lubricated. When the engine is well-lubricated, it can operate within the optimum temperature range that supports your vehicle's performance, efficiency, reliability, and durability. One of the best ways to maintain a Honda car, truck, van, or SUV's engine is by changing the engine oil at the recommended maintenance schedule for your specific model found in the owner's manual.

Conventional - or also called Regular or Standard, conventional oil is like the foundation of all engine oils. It requires the least amount of refinement and is recommended for many Honda models. It costs slightly less than synthetic alternatives and works wonderfully for many Honda vehicles.

Semi-Synthetic - or also called Synthetic Blend, this engine oil type represents the middle ground of engine oils. It can be thought of as a blend of conventional and full-synthetic because it contains a blend of man-made additives and detergents with conventional oil.

Full-Synthetic - or also called man-made, this engine oil type represents the peak of modern engine oil technology. It requires the most refinement but also resists thermal breakdown better and for longer than other oil alternatives. It costs slightly more but the little cost increase is often negligible due to the benefits that some older-model Hondas receive. Many of our loyal customers with older-model Hondas have switched to Full-Synthetic because of the engine-protecting advantages it can deliver.
