What’s the 2011 Honda Accord’s oil type?

I have a 2011 Honda Accord and I’m planning to start changing my oil, but I lost the owner’s manual. Can you tell me what kind of oil this car takes so I can buy the right one?

Learning to change your own oil is a great way to save money and exercise fine motor skills. Get the joke? But seriously, the 2011
Honda Accord
oil type is synthetic 0W-20 motor oil.
The best oil you can give to your engine is fully synthetic, high-quality oil so that it can run as smoothly as possible for as long as possible. Here are a few different brands of oil you can use in your Accord:
  • Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0W-20 Full Synthetic Motor Oil
  • Castrol EDGE 0W-20 Full Synthetic Motor Oil
  • Valvoline Advanced Full Synthetic 0W-20 Motor Oil
  • Pennzoil Platinum 0W-20 Full Synthetic Motor Oil
A good rule of thumb is to change your oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or every three to five months. You can read about
