My wife's "beloved" POS 2004 Civic (base model) is due for a change soon. Spec oil is 5w20. We're in So Cal, so temps are generally 20-25c, year round.
Her driving is mostly short (
Add in she's not a gentle driver. Hard stops and starts, doesn't wait for warm up, leaves AC button in the whole time.
What do I fill with next? (Ignore the fact that it's my secret dream to have this car grenade so we can get something else).
I planned on putting in PP 5w20 since its on special 3.99/qt at ORLY here, but they don't stock that weight, so I'm free to choose. Wal-mart is > 20 miles away (e.g., 2 hours down the 405) so any jug specials don't help me -- I'll have to get single quarts at the local CSKauto/AZ/Pepboys.
Help me guys!
