What oil

[Gavln]

Hi all just hoping for a little advise on what oil to use for my oil change.

Ive got an 2005 accord 2.2 I-ctdi.

Castrol website says to use Castro edge 0w-20 ll iv fully synthetic, Euro car part comes up with Castro edge 0w-30 fully syn, Halfords comes up 5w-30 fully syn and I don't have the car Manuel

Thanks

Thank you

Yes 0W30 but also make sure the specification is A5/B5 as this is just as important!

Thanks Grayedout thats a great help i have also found the other forums about the correct oil and have learnt alot. I haven’t had the car long and still figuring out its probs but i think its been let go abit and desperate for an oil change.

Your choice but I also change mine every 6,000 miles rather than the recommnded 12,000. I could give you a really long explanation regarding oil addtives and dispersants and detergents and soot or could just say trust me and it certainly won't do any harm !

Compared to the price of replacement engine components then a cost of an extra oil change is peanuts.
