The standard 1.7-liter inline-4 engine in the 2002 Honda Civic takeS3.5 liters (3.7 quarts) of SAE 5W-20 synthetic oil. A few popular products include Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, Quaker State Ultimate Durability, Valvoline MaxLife High Mileage, Castrol Edge with Titanium, and Royal Purple. Honda recommends replacing the fluid in this vehicle every 5,000 miles or 6 months, whichever You arrive to first. However, this may vary based on Your personal driving habits. Low oil pressure can result in expensive damage, so it's important to check the fluid regularly to make sure it hasn't gotten old or low before it's time for a maintenance appointment. The average cost to replace the oil in the 2002 Civic is $90 to $110. Labor accounts for around $40 of that total, so You can save some money if You handle it Yourself.
