factory specifications.
you can't go wrong with 'em.
does manufacturer say one should use synthetic or other..?
"why spend more..?"

10w40 semi-synthetic will be a bit thick for the L15 engine. I suggest using 5w30 viscosity. You can buy a gallon of Xteer FS 5w30 at Lazada for around 1200. You can also use Zic or Mag1.

If you want to use regular mineral oil, just go to a Honda casa and buy their base 10w30 mineral oil. I think it is priced below 200 per liter. Honda used to offer a budget 1k change oil service using that oil. That's good for around 5k km.

thanks. will try the 5w30 or 10w30 options. budget is of course a concern.

Anyone tried Amsoil? Heard they’re supposedly the best oil.
