[quote=”EricTheCarGuy” post=79490]I recommend you ALWAYS use the oil type recommended by the manufacturer. Engineers spend a great deal of time figuring that very thing out for best performance and fuel economy. I used to work next to guys that did the same thing because they didn’t want to walk to the parts department to get the correct oil. I can’t see how it’s that hard to use the correct oil. As for damage you probably wouldn’t experience any, or any ill effects for that matter with that small difference in viscosity. But for me it’s the principal of the thing. The Honda dealer should know better and should be able to care for your vehicle better than anyone else. Especially since you pay a premium for them to do the work for you.[/quote]
every car manual I have read which vary in years from 1990 to 2003 all state atleast THREE types of oil the car can use which most state 5w30, 10w30 or just 30

around my area in a nearby city there is a dealership that actually fixed totaled cars and sells them as salvage titles for substantially less cost for example a 06 Venture with 60k miles was on sale there several months back for like 4900 it depends on the damage of the car and the force and type of collision it was in. If its missing a bumper cover but has no structural damage than id say its a OK car that is if you are in a state that don’t require inspection to get it registered. Laws state cars need bumpers they don’t state that it needs the bumper cover also what matters is electrical you don’t want a car that has blown fuses
