Dealer reported independent oil analysis that I had done to Honda Canada Tech and they refused warranty due to the fact that the engine had Amsoil 0W20 fully synthetic oil in it (recommended weight by Amsoil). They claimed I had to pay for leak down test, compression testing and fuel system testing to pinpoint the cause(over $600). Amsoil rep felt that there was a faulty injector that was leaking while engine was off. I refused the testing. This just shows how well they stand behind their product. The debris caught in the injector must have let loose because the problem has gone away on its own, thereby proving that it was not the oil at fault because cylinder/ring wear does not go away.
