    Its going to be 0W-20 Synthetic only, there no conventional for it. However, it does exist as a semisynthetic as Honda Brand Oil, but I never see it sold in stores. It is actually more expensive buying the honda brand semi-synthetic versus Walmart Mobil 1 or Pennzoil

    The "0" in in 0w20 is the viscosity of the oil during cold. After the car warms up the oil goes to 20. The "W" stands for winter. The lower the number, the less viscous the oil is. Viscosity Definition is :resistance to flow. lower number = less resistance and more flow. So during cold...
