Honda recommends having your 2001 Honda Prelude’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Prelude may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Honda recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Honda Prelude. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2001 Honda Prelude motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Honda has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the ideal engine oil for your 2001 Prelude. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, regulate engine temperature, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During your oil change service, an auto technician will change your Prelude’s oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, top-off important fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Prelude by considering your driving habits, local climate,
