    AU 17' Accord V6 - What oil viscosity?

    Is the Shell ECT C3 a good fit i thought that was mainly a diesel focused oil? Used the Penrite last change but Shell is on sale now. Otherwise i can just grab the helix 5w-30 was a little concerned with the cylinder shutoff though.

    It’s very uncommon for the viscosity to be on the oil cap down here.

    AU 17' Accord V6 - What oil viscosity?

    AU 17' Accord V6 - What oil viscosity?

    I had an 07 v6 also and was using 5w-40 in that and got some good mileage out of the vehicle... However with this VCM system and modern tolerances i didn't want to push my luck. Our accords are the same as the USA spec vehicles size and all its the Accord euro that was different.
