When I was at the dealer service 2 weeks ago.. I saw a poster on the wall with all the Honda Engine Oil.. One of them is TypeR oil... I was like  .. Anyway, the TypeR engine oil is for Intergra TypeR, S2000 and NSX.. I do a search on the net .. and find very little information about it.. Anyone knows anything about it? What grade are they? Full Synthetic or Semi? How much? |

Full Synthetic or Semi? How much? type r engine oil is full synthetic, 10W50 from memory have a check on australia section of clubrsx i never used it on mine, always supplied my own mobil 1 5w50 since first service but some have suggested it wasn't as thin as mobil 1 and might protect the type r engine better as it revs a lot higher than most engine |

Yes.. not when it is under 10,000Km... Papaya has a post in the Tech Talks section...
I am yet to receive a clarification from Honda about using non-Honda oil.. e.g. Mobil1 Synthetic, Shell Helix Ultra etc.. I've got controvesial feedback...

i've never used Mobil 1 on my Jazz wor. i don't think they use Type R oil for these "VTEC" anyway.
Motul price is insane......

I am yet to receive a clarification from Honda about using non-Honda oil.. e.g. Mobil1 Synthetic, Shell Helix Ultra etc.. I've got controvesial feedback... Just got a final clarification from Honda.... What they are saying is... - Your owners warranty and service manual states to ensure your warranty coverage we recommend to use original Honda lubricants and spare parts.
- If you choose not to use Honda oil.. the oil you choose has to be be good quality and meet the requirement as stated in the manual. 10w30 party synthetic specifications API SJ/SL.
I am happy with that... |
