What is the 2001 Honda Civic’s oil type?

We just bought a 2001 Honda Civic for our son’s 16th birthday. I want to make sure he knows all the basic maintenance skills, starting with changing the oil. What kind of oil will we need?

Great plan, and he’ll be thankful for the skills! The 2001
Honda Civic
oil type is 5W-20 full synthetic oil. The standard model’s 1.7-liter engine requires 3.4 quarts of oil, and it’s a good idea to change your oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to ensure your engine runs properly.
