In 2008, the Honda Accord requires 5w20 oil and holds 4.4 quarts. It's crucial to use high-quality oil to keep the engine running smoothly. Issues can arise if the oil is not maintained properly, such as a strong burning smell. This must be addressed promptly to prevent potential engine damage. Using low-quality oil can lead to engine failure, indicated by a knocking noise and decreased fuel efficiency. It's important to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to avoid engine problems down the road.

    My 2008 Honda, equipped with a V6 engine, has clocked 260,000 miles. It consumes a quart of oil every 3,000 miles but continues to perform well with the 5W-30 synthetic Mobil oil.
