\r\n \r\n I just put 10w30 in my van. It\'s got 260,000 miles on it and runs like a champ. It\'s got a 4.2l ford V6 though.\r\n

\r\n \r\n The whole switching back from synthetic to non synthetic is imo a myth and doesn\'t matter. It probably calls for a 5w30, just run 10w30 in it and if its ur first oil change just check it every 200 miles or so until you know the car doesn\'t burn oil or anything like that.\r\n

\r\n \r\n u def can mess some things up by switching back and forth just like u can mess things up by running different gasses
\neither way the weight u use doesnt really matter so much kinda depends on how u drive 5 or 10w is both fine\r\n

\r\n \r\n high mileage blend is just marketing. the additives are barely different, maybe extra detergent.

\nas for weight, no higher than 5w30 and no less than 0w20 for your honda, depending on climate.\r\n
