Thanks for asking .... ‘cause I am having same questions as you do, and waiting to reply. Expert, please help if you are so sure 100%, I went to Honda Dealer Dept. of Service and Parts, people have many years service there could not answer my question, they don’t even know (or don’t want to tell) one is mineral base while other is synthetic, .... very disappointed because this is very basic common knowledge for such broad consumer population industry, transparency is still withheld abusively.
