Running Amsoil 0w-20 feels like the engine was in neutral and free reving, and the willingness of hitting vtec rev range to redline is a real pleasure. I guest this was expected for a thinner oil.
What I did find was that in the morning (especially in winter) on start up then engine sounds quieter than the factory fill. I dump the factory fill at about 3000km as the pinging drove me nuts.
With 70% Sydney city driving and with climate control set to AUTO 22c. I get 8.7litres/100km as shown on my B mode trip computer which I don't reset until I do a service.
Also at 20k I flush the automatic trans fluid with new DW1 and this made a difference when the engine is shifting when cold. I don't get that slight hesitation that the CU was starting to develop. I suppose the oil has started to break down at this early stage.
Felt the same benefits after changing to 0w-20 (Honda premium). But I was told that the engine will burn the oil and not to track the car (i dont track).
