Honda also announced the implementation of a bulk system for the SN 0W-20 engine oil which will be expanded to authorized Honda dealers nationwide.

Besides its obvious benefit of less bottle disposal and reduced wastage of unused oil, the bulk system also ensures volume accuracy which increases efficiency at service operations.
The introduction of the bulk system is an effective step towards achieving Honda’s Global Environment Goal of Triple Zero (Zero CO2 emissions, Zero waste & Zero energy risk). Through the Triple Zero concept, Honda aims to create a zero-impact society by engaging with climate change, energy and resource issues through its technology and business activities.
In order to meet the growing needs of Honda customers in Malaysia, Honda is targeting to increase the number of authorized Honda dealers to 90 by 2015, with dealers at every major town in Malaysia. Equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and technology, and coupled with well-trained service advisors, all Honda customers are encouraged to bring their cars to be serviced at any authorized Honda dealers nationwide.
