Recommended Engine Oil
Engine oil viscosity for ambient temperature ranges
Used engine oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with skin for prolonged periods. Although this is unlikely unless you handle used oil on a daily basis, it is sill advisable to thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as soon as possible after handling used oil. |
| *1: | Always use genuine Honda Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF). Using motor oil can cause stiffer shifting because it does not contain the proper additives. |
| *2: | We recommend Genuine Honda Brake Fluid. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and decrease the life of the system. |
