[Morketh]

What kind of oil goes in acura rsx-s regular 30-30 or something different?

[kommon_sense]

5w30 in the type-s. mobil1 is a good choice.

Hey man, I took it to the Honda dealership and they put 5w20 in there and I asked them why and they said thats what Honda recommends; even though it says 5w30 on the oil cap....

Is that okay that they did that?

[kommon_sense]

honda changed their recommendations for some vehicles, but no way would I put 20 weight in a car with an 8k redline. Just use your own oil next time.

Roger that sir.

yeah i agree with kommon_sense there's no way i would put 5w20 in my car unless it was a colder environment. then maybe it could skate by.
