It's the same price as the store favourite castrol edge, except its in stock.

Was missing at purchase of the vehicle, had issues locating one as junk yards avoid selling them.

(Late night scrolling, replied to wrong message.)

I know those who use it swear by it, the green color is very interesting. Thanks for the input, wasn't sure if it was suitable. Will give it a shot!

Oddly they have a sale on Liqui-moly Molygen 5w30... would i be wrong in wanting to use it given its great sale price?

Just an update for you guys many kilometers and oil changes later! Started off on the Penrite Enviro+ GF-S 5w30, needed a1000ml top up after 2000km. Moved back to shell as i had used in my prior vehicles and saw no noticeable oil consumption all the way up to my 7500km service interval! Did an...

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.

Not when a dealer loses them unfortunately :T

I'll give the Penrite a go, may as well support local! Thanks mate.

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

Would these be a good fit? http://www.penriteoil.com.au/products/enviro-gf-s-5w-30-full-syn https://www.shell.com.au/motorists/oils-lubricants/helix-for-cars/helix-fully-synthetic/shell-helix-ultra-ect-c3-5w-30.html...

I'll go out and grab some ILSAC rated oil for it, thanks for the reply :) I'm aware what each spec is i just wasn't aware if Honda had a specific one they followed.

I feel really stupid asking this but what 'specification' would i want to look for i.e. BMWLL01, GF-5, MS-6395, etc I do drive quite enthusiastically and its not uncommon to go for a weekend mountain drive.

Thanks for the reply, i was thinking that given how good my J30 was to me. Will just throw the Shell Helix Ultra in for now and see how it goes.

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.

Hi All, Recently picked up a 17' Accord V6 in Australia that is in dire need of a service. From this forum i can see the US and CA spec cars use 0w-20 oil however down here each dealer has told me something different depending what they have on tap. I'd refer to the manual however the dealer...

Been a while, the e60 is long gone and the SHU was a great oil in that motor(Burnt 500ml-1000ml every 3000km but was silent as a mouse) very happy with it thanks to SR5. I have moved onto a newer 5 series still with an N52 however the indy mechanic i used put LM Toptec 4200 in it 6500km ago (No...

Got an awesome black Friday deal on the shell ultra will give it a try! Thanks mate.

Thanks for the reply mate. I was also looking at Mobil 1 0w40 and Catrol Edge 5w40, is the Penrite a 'better' oil for my conditions? I'm about to do a 4000km return trip so i really want the car to be happy with what is in it I found the Castrol 0w40 to be allot quieter at cold startup.

Yeah the Penrite seems to be very happy in allot of cars i put it in... plus its usually on sale haha. I'm just worried as i want this car to last the 300k my Accord did and its allot more complicated haha.
