What type of oil does my 05 Accord take?
The recommended oil by Honda is 5W-20. This includes the coupe, sedan, and hybrid models.
How much oil does a 2005 need in quarts?
The 4-cylinder (2.4L engine) takes 4.4 quarts with a filter, and the 6-cylinder (3.0L) takes 4.5 quarts with a filter for both the sedan and coupe. We looked at the 2005 Hyrbid manual and it states 4.5 quarts of 5W-20.

What kind of filter will fit a 2005 Accord?
There are so many kinds of filters on the market and sometimes looking one up can be confusing. The good news is that all engines for a ’05 Accord use the same filter size! See below for a proper fitting filter for this vehicle
I am not sure about what engine my Accord has under the hood. Is there a way to know?
There is a way to see what engine you have based on the VIN number. Please visit https://www.meadowvalehonda.ca/en/news/view/how-to-read-your-vin-number/63510 for more information. If you still have trouble identifying your engine size then no worries! The good news is looking at each of the three engines for a 2005 Accord, they all take the same oil type, and filter and the capacities are very similar.
So you can work your way up from the smallest capacity listed here on this page and check the dipstick for a proper level. This way you avoid overfilling the engine with oil. Don’t worry, the difference is .1 of a quart. So if you are not sure start with 4.4 quarts and check the dipstick. If it is a bit low add a bit more but not too much. You should be ok because some vehicles with different engines may have a difference of 1 to 2 quarts! The difference between the 4 and 6 cylinder when it comes to oil capacity for your vehicle is minimal.
