5th Oil. what oil do u use?

how many litres of oil does the h22a take?

It's written in your manual.

stick with honda u cant go wrong.....

bit more then 5L mate (the manual says something like 4.8 with oil fitler change) but the reality after checking it is you'll need another 200ml on top of the regular 5L botte

thanks dude. i didnt realise the h22 takes that much oil.

i didnt use that much oil i do not think...i thought that when the service was done to my car there was around 4.8-4.9 in the engine no more.
but after requiring to top it up as the h22a likes to burn a little oil.. it may go up to 5ltr or a little more.

would it make a diff to engine oil preference if u have higher k's ? say over 200 ?

Yes. Higher ks (200k+) would need a slightly thicker oil than one with half that.

Is the standard oil 10w-40 for the H? I remember the F of the same era used 10w-40 instead of the modern 10w-30. If it was 10w-40, then you could go for 10w-50 or 5w-50.

We've used even 15w-50 in a F22a (the coldest EVER temperature where the car is being used at is 25 C) and the engine has done cover 275,000km. The engine is GREAT! The transmission on the other hand............ (it is already on its 2nd auto gearbox)

feo oil is 10w30sj but if its 200k+ use 20w50 my dealership uses Fuchs oil.

is fuchs a good brand ?

so u rekn 200+k car should use 10w40 or 10w50 then? will this lose noticable amount of kw at all ?

Feo oil is more for performance but with older engines the oil is fairly thin so you will notice when you fill the oil that it will just come out of the exhaust.
