___The 03-05 I4 based Accord’s have 5-bolt lug pattern as does the V6’s. I don’t know if it is an exact pattern match but they both have the 5-bolt pattern.
Hi, Wayne... thanks for posting this. If there's one person on this board who knows more Honda 'trivia' than me....it's you
I bow before the master
Figures that Honda would change this with the 7th-gen Accord, and I'd stick my foot in my mouth
As I posted earlier in the thread...was at Rosen today for the 1st oil change. Brought my 5 bottles of Mobil1 0w-20, and the tech says... "that's the same oil we use - you can save that for next time, since this one is on us"
"
You put Mobil1 in for oil changes ?" ::incredulous & disbelieving::
"Yep - for the S2000 and the hybrid cars. 0W-20"
You seem to be on knowledgeable terms with them - was the kid pulling my leg ?
And if not...why would you have been bringing them your own Mobil1 all this time (except that it was still cheaper)?
And why would they use 0W-20, when they should likely get the Honda 5w-20 at a much cheaper cost, and be adhering to 'specs' ? I didn't see any signs stating "extra charge for synoil when required" on their oil change promotions... (I know - I should have asked the tech that, not you)
On another note - I pulled a sample of the break-in oil and sent it off to Blackstone today - so we'll see what's in that oil besides a ton of molybdenum... I've always been curious to know, since Honda's been telling people all these years that their break-in oil was 'unique'...
