Oil capacity for the 2014 Accord Sport
The Sport model uses Honda’s 2.4L inline-4 engine. The official oil capacity for this engine, including the filter, is 4.5 quarts (roughly 4.3 liters). The recommended oil grade is 0W-20 full synthetic in most conditions.
- Engine: 2.4L inline-4 (most common in 2014 Accord Sport) — Oil capacity: 4.5 quarts (with filter) (approximately 4.3 L)
Note: Always consult the owner’s manual or the oil-change sticker on the vehicle for the exact specification, especially in extreme climates or when using different oil grades.
Other engine options in the 2014 Accord lineup
For context, some trims were offered with a 3.5L V6 engine. The V6 has a different oil capacity than the 2.4L engine used in the Sport.
3.5L V6 engine oil capacity
The 3.5L i-VTEC V6 used in higher trims has an oil capacity of about 5.5 quarts (with filter, roughly 5.2 L). The recommended oil grade for the V6 is typically 0W-20 or 5W-20 depending on the model year and climate.
- Engine: 3.5L V6 — Oil capacity: 5.5 quarts (with filter)
Again, this capacity applies to trims other than Sport; Sport specifically uses the 2.4L engine.
How to verify and perform an oil change
To ensure accuracy, always check the owner's manual and the vehicle’s oil-change sticker. Here is a simple guide to verify and perform an oil change on a 2014 Accord Sport:
- Warm up the engine briefly, then turn it off and park on a level surface.

- Check the oil level with the dipstick and add oil as needed to reach the full mark.
Note: This is a general guide. For precise steps and torque specs, refer to the owner's manual or service manual.
