Engine oil OEM Honda or OEM Volkswagen
I have a 2023 Civic Si.
I did every oil change at around 8k miles which is when my maintenance minder popped up, even though the dealer recommended every 5k. No issues ever, now at 46k miles.
Had a 2.0 Diesel Tiguan, same model as you. No oil consimption at all over 80.000 km.
I put used vegetable oil in my Honda Accord 7k intervals has 380,000 miles on it
Honda HP4S.
If you are using VW original oil then stick to it and the service interval. 15 years 229,000km later mine is going strong. I did mess up by doing service at 15k km all these years. Sticking to 12k is best. Instead try iftex system D. Makes a very noticeable difference. More important I feel is changing the air filter more often. And compulsorily changing diesel filter every year.
One must change the oil by 8.5k kms, due to constant thermo heat cycle, its addictive pack gets broken down, oil gets dirty.
Been running 87 and 5w 40 on my mk7.5 for the last 40k of ownership. She loves it, no tics stutters or hiccups at 65k miles.
as long as it meets the VW 508 00/509 00 specification, it'll be fine which I think is 0w-20 and I \\*think\\* 5w-20
don't go beyond that, while it \\*may\\* not fuck the engine up, those 1.4Ts are REALLY picky (I had one in my Jetta Hybrid and anything past 5w-20 and she was angry )
-Guys I realized I haven't changed my oil for 60k kilometers how bad is it\n\n-My 20 year old Honda has a fairing loose how do I fix it
I dont know about the newer 1.5t in the crv's, but im getting rid of mine because of the oil dilution issue. Sent out an oil sample and it came back with 8.2% dilution on oil that had 2k miles on it with 0 idle time. All the technical service bulletins have been done and \"nothing\" is wrong with the car.
