First Oil change for a new Honda
Hey all,
I'v got a Honda Pilot that I bought last year. After ~8000km the oil now needs replacement. This oil which originally came with the car sustained a lot of km. Maybe it's just because the car is relatively new but my Honda civic needs oil change every ~3000km from walmart. I want to take care of the SUV and put quality oil in it but I'm not an expert in automotives. At the same time I want to avoid the dealer rip off. Is there a high quality brand of oil that will get me another 8000Km or more ?
For my case, is syntethic oil the way to go ? I practically have no clue about the pros/cons of the different classes of oil. Your insight would be helpful.
I would appreciate suggestions of any oil changing place, or is Walmart just fine ?
Lastly, could I buy the oil and take it Walmart or somewhere for changing ?
Thanks for any advise in what route to take
