The 2011 Honda Pilot requires 4.3 liters (4.5 quarts) of SAE 5W-20 engine oil, which is a common synthetic fluid that performs well in different engines across different climates, particularly in cold weather. SAE 5W-20 is a thinner oil compared to what you may be familiar with. It has a honey color and flows easily. If the oil appears dark and thick, it means you have waited too long to replace it. Honda recommends changing this oil every 7,500 miles, but if you frequently drive on dirt roads or encounter heavy stop-and-go traffic during your daily commute, you may need to change it more often. On average, it costs between $110 to $140 to get the oil changed in the 2011 Pilot, with labor accounting for about $50 of the total cost.
