The 2008 Honda Civic takeS3.9 quarts of oil. Your oil needs to be changed eventually. Every 5,000 to 10,000 miles is a good rule of thumb. If You don't change it, there will be problems with the engine. Having high quality oil is key for the engine to run smoothly. You will run into issues with the oil at some point. A common problem is an awful burning smell. This needs to be inspected as soon as possible or the car might explode. Bad oil can cause the engine to stop working. You could experience terrible gas mileage. Knocking noise may come about from the engine.

I've never gotten a clear answer for this, but being an owner of an 08 civic si. I've gone by what the Haynes manual says for oil capacity, which is 4.6 quarts..The thing is when I run it and get the oil through the filter completely.. Noting I always change the filter when doing oil. It still reads just over the bottom mark and should be around middle. So I put a little more than half a quart to bring it up to level on the dipstick.. So with all said my full answer would be 5.3 quarts with a filter change. I think the 4.6 then would be without filter, the Haynes manual does not specify with or without..
