I dont know if you guys in the USA are like that but all Honda's since 2012 in Canada comes with a Full Syntetic oïl....i was looking to go full synthetic on my 2017 civic hatch, and i found a genuine honda full synthetic oil/
is the genuine honda full synthetic oil better for civic than other brand?

Don't use the cheap Fram filters. I've only used higher end Fram filters in my Alero. 210,000 miles and nothing wrong with the engine......(knocks on wood) It does help that I drive 100 miles a day for work and it is 90% interstate and I change my oil at 5,000 miles when I can still feel that it is in great condition.Honestly, i believe all oils are perform around the same.
The most important thing to note however is the frequency when you change it. Just use any oil that is 0w-20 and change every 5,000 miles and your good!
Ps. Use a quality oil filter ( don't use fram).
There are some filters (i.e. Wix) that trap more contaminants and have shown to provide better UOA results over a typical oil change (though the advantage is not significant). It's not going to void the warranty unless the component was proven to be defective. I guess it's possible, but unlikely.Why dont you guys use the oem filters?
If something goes wrong ..You will be sure Honda wont Bug on the waranty for not installing the oem filter
Honda has to prove that that is the only reason of why the issue happened..........they can't just say you used xyz product....your warranty is now voided.Why dont you guys use the oem filters?

Because Honda's current OEM filter is not good at all. It's made by Honeywell/Fram and is low quality.Why dont you guys use the oem filters?

Honda isnt gonna void or bug on a warranty for using a different filter... Hell the a01 honda filter is made by filtech and is a very good filter.. And the a02 honda filter is made by honeywell and is a piece if garbage.. A02 is what dealers are getting now.. So if you want one of the worst filters on your car.. Sure use hondas filter.. If i have to go to dealer for oil change i verify what they have in stock.. If no a01's i tell them to use one out of my trunkWhy dont you guys use the oem filters?

Oh and oem doesnt mean it has to say honda on it.. If you go buy the honeywell filter at autozone it will be considered oem eventho it doesnt say honda and says fram insteadWhy dont you guys use the oem filters?

For you. None, but it should help on cold starts when the temperature is below freezing......There is supposed to be less "waxing" with full synthetic oilsi have a 2016 ext. What are the advantages of going Full Synthetic?
