★ Top Answer
For optimal performance in the 2002 Honda Accord, it is recommended to use 5W-20 Synthetic oil in all weather conditions. The oil capacity is 4.5 quarts with a filter for the 2.3 L 4-cylinder engine, and 4.2 quarts with a filter for the 3.0 L V6 engine. Both engines require a torque of 33 ft/lbs for the drain plugs. Using oil is crucial as it helps maintain engine cleanliness and lubricates various components to reduce friction. It is advised to change the oil and filter approximately every 5,000 miles to ensure proper functioning, as oil wears out over time. When opting for a professional oil change service, expect labor costs ranging from $40 to $50, with additional fees for parts.
