Hi, 2003 Accord 236K kms.
approx 7000km per year nowadays
It always had 5W20 till 2021 and had 2 oil changes per year.
Since 2021, I started putting Mobil1 EP 0W20 and only did one oil change per year.
Mechanic just reported that exhaust Cam lobe for Cyl 1 has some pitting so I am turning back to 2 oil changes per year and I am going to do xW30 instead of xW20 to get better film strength to help reduce Cam lobe wear.
In Summer I am thinking Mobil1 5W30 or even Mobil1 5W30 EP
What do I do in winter? Here in Manitoba Winters are very cold ( many weeks of -25C) and while at home I have block heater, I dont have that at workplace.
Mobil1 EP 0W20 noticeably started the car very easily.
Only 0W30 I get in Manitoba from Mobil1 is AFE.
