Engine oil Eneos or ELF
I've been putting 10w-40 ELF 70 STI regular oil in my 1.6 petrol from '98 for 3 years now with no issues.
I'd stick with oem or put some better stuff like Motul or Eneos into it. Eneos has some relation to Honda oem oil I forget the story. I use to put only mutul into my car but have recently switched to Eneos, will be putting eneos 0w-20 race prior to tune.
For shits and giggles I switched to ENEOS 5w30 synthetic in my 2 current vehicles and now I'm able to go 5,000 miles between oil changes and while some oil is still consumed, it stays above the "add" line on the dipstick without adding oil between oil changes.
I use only Eneos 0w20.
I normally use Mobil 1, but did experiment with a JDM brand called ENEOS. The engine seemed to run smoother with that engine than other brands I've tried before.
Eneos oil. Japanese full synthetic. Use it on my 96 accord. Good stuff.
5w40 for sure, my engine sounds happier, quieter, more sound than it did when the PO had 5w30 in it. So 5w40 is a given especially since you have a lot of Km on the clock, when it comes to the brand it really doesn't matter especially if you keep the oil change intervals reasonable.
I use Elf Oil and I change mine every 5-7k miles.
Eneos 5w-30! Car runs like a dream
Now, I realized that the engine oil the mechanic put on when I got the camshaft replaced in november, is actually meant for cars. The oil is the ELF sporti TXI 10W40.
