SalamAdvice required as it is beneficial to switch from 5w30 to 5w40 honda genuine oil? Pros and Cons ad my ride is honda city 2014, 65000 recently purchased,
Unless your car is consuming oil slightly due to weak rings there is no reason to shift to 5W-40 (A "thicker" oil). Always stick to the manual.
I am currently driving a 15 years old car with 180,000+ KM on 5W-30 and it is perfectly fine.
What does Honda recommend?
keep using 5w30does it give blue smoke at start plus honda has mentioned in 2008 upward models manual that slight consumption is normal
What city do you live in? Both oil viscosity's are good tbh.
Rawalpindi
No issue with consumption, just as if there is no issue with 5w40 then i want to ask
Both
5w 30 should be fine then
Great, i have info that 5w40 is thinner, so talk to people have experience always fruitfull
Thanks for ur time and reply
So its better to stick with Honda Genuine 5w30 with. Genuine Honda oil filters rather to shift to 5w40 or another oil manufacturer s
5w30 is thinner will give better mileage than 5w40. I am also using Honda OEM 5w30 and satisfied in my 2002 civic
in Pakistani weather and atmosphere conditions 5w-40 is more suited.
you can opt for shell helix ultra 5w-40 grey pack fully synthetic. its a good oil
Thanks to all pakwheelers for their guidance and reply
