I just had synthetic oil put in my Honda Civic. Now I must always use synthetic oil for future oil changes?

nightwings apprentice asked:


For whatever reason I just had an oil change for my 2006 Honda Civic and had them use synthetic oil for the first time. I don't know what I was thinking and I certainly did not investigate it enough before doing it.

Now I am reading online some people stating it is great to do and others stating that it is a waste of money. That's fine. But I have also read a few comments online where people have stated that once you put synthetic oil in a car you must always use synthetic oil for future oil changes? Is this true? I hope not...
I did use the Honda recommended oil 5W-20

ThinkClearWater asked:


My right front tire is making a screeching (shreiking ) sound ( as if 2 metals are making it ) when i turn the wheels ..
someone mentioned to me it could be the break pads?

i have to be honest here , i have been using the break pads pretty wildy ever since i bought it ( 3 months ago )
but do you think that's the problem , and if so can i change it for just one tire ( how much do you think it'll cost me , i am kinda tight now )
i am not sure if the warrantly will cover it , how would i find that out ?

How do I make a Honda Civic look sporty?

Josh asked:


So I'm buying my first car and I'm 17, decided to get the Civic, because its safe, reliable, has a good resale value, cheaper than most, and good on gas.

See if I was going to get the Mustang or Camaro, it would look cool and sporty and all, but I would be dead in a month because of various reasons... so how do I make this 2007 used Civic, look sporty?

I don't want to make it like over board with 5 bass speakers, racing stripes, Nos etc... just things that will turn heads and make people say nice car.
