The 2022 Honda Accord Sport uses 0W-20 full synthetic engine oil.
Both engine options offered in the Sport trim—the 1.5-liter turbo and the 2.0-liter turbo—require 0W-20 full synthetic oil. Use Honda Genuine Motor Oil 0W-20 or any full-synthetic oil that meets API specifications and ILSAC GF-6 (or newer) standards. Refer to the owner’s manual for exact capacity and service intervals.
Engine options for the 2022 Accord Sport
The Sport is available with two turbocharged engines, each requiring the same oil grade but paired with different transmissions.
- 1.5L VTEC Turbocharged engine — approximately 192 horsepower, typically paired with a CVT in most trims; requires 0W-20 full synthetic oil.
- 2.0L Turbocharged engine — approximately 252 horsepower, paired with a 10-speed automatic; requires 0W-20 full synthetic oil.
Regardless of the engine choice, Honda specifies the same oil grade for the Accord Sport, so you can use 0W-20 synthetic across both powerplants.
Oil change and maintenance considerations
Maintenance intervals are managed by Honda’s Maintenance Minder, and oil capacity varies by engine. Use 0W-20 full synthetic oil and follow the on-board reminders for service intervals.
Key notes to keep in mind:
- Recommended oil type and viscosity: 0W-20 full synthetic, API SN or newer, GF-6 compliant.
- Typical change interval under normal driving: around 7,500 miles, or as indicated by the maintenance minder; more frequent under severe driving conditions.
- Checking and adding oil: check the level with the dipstick when the engine is cool; add small amounts as needed to reach the full mark.
Always consult the owner's manual and the vehicle’s maintenance minder for the exact interval and capacity for your specific model and engine.
Summary
For the 2022 Honda Accord Sport, use 0W-20 full synthetic engine oil for both available turbo engines. Opt for Honda Genuine Motor Oil 0W-20 or an equivalent that meets current API and ILSAC GF-6 standards, and rely on the Maintenance Minder to guide oil-change intervals. Verify engine-specific capacities and procedures in the owner’s manual.
