Is it good to use Castrol Oil (magnetic 10w-40) for honda accord 2003 Lx 2.4?
I need to change the engine oil of my Honda accord 2003 Lx 2.4 and i want the best castrol oil to use for the best performance.
Yes, if it is the right viscosity. 10w-40 is too heavy/thick for your car. This is used for much older cars with high mileage.
You'll need 0w-20, or 5w-20. Yes Castrol is a good brand.
The Best one will the full synthetic oil.
Wrong viscosity. Honda prefers 0W-20 but will take 5W-20. Using a different viscosity can set off a check engine light and cause other engine problems. Read these two articles on what happens when you use the wrong viscosity

Its Magnatec… Magnetic. Lol
Yeah, the Magnatec is just a big fancy word to sound neat.
You make a great choice of Castrol oil. I've used Castrol for over 20 years, when I put it into my little Honda motorcycle, and noticed a big difference in its performance.
Best to use synthetic, it costs little more, but will work better for the engine. It is more expensive, so you can even buy part synthetic, which is mix of normal oil and synthetic. But if you can, it's better to go with full synthetic.
Walmart has a good deal on changing oil for synthetic for $55.
I go there and never have to get my hands dirty again. They have Castrol synthetic, too.
Sure, Castrol makes about the best product in the business. The only thing better would be to use a full synthetic.

- If in the owners manual it says I should use 5W-20 motor oil, can I use 10W-40 motor oil instead? I have a 2009 Honda Fit. I just recently bought 10W-40 and when I got home to put oil in the manual said 5W-20. What's the difference? And is it okay if I still use the 10W-40?
- Oil Change: Honda Motor Oil Vs Generic oil, does it make a difference? I have been getting oil changes with Honda motor oil for 15 years on my 2002 civic that now has 132K miles. If I switch to a generic $10 oil change garage shop will it still be ok? I know the Honda filters are better then the cheapest generic ones but how about the actual motor oil?
- If I have an oil leak should I continue to use Synthetic oil? I have Honda civic 1997 lx sedan, I have an oil leak on the left side of the engine. By the distributer. My question is, is it worth using synthetic oil even though there's a leak? Or should I just use conventional oil because there's a leak?
