The 2000 Honda Civic requires 5w30 oil for all its engine variants. Depending on the engine type, you will need approximately 3.5 to 3.7 quarts of oil. To change the oil in your car, ensure the vehicle has been parked and turned off for a few hours to allow the engine to cool down. Locate the oil pan and drain plug underneath the engine compartment, position a bucket below, and remove the plug to let the oil drain completely. Replace the plug after draining, then refill the oil through the intake port on the top of the oil pan using a funnel. Be cautious not to overfill, as it can cause leaks and oil burn off. Once filled, close the port, clean up any spilled oil, and you're done.
