Oil filter Mahle or OEM Honda

I also do mine at 5k, religiously. I use Honda Ultimate Full Synthetic 10w30 with a Honda brand filter.

i use oem filters for my 2004 SiR, they’re pretty much the same price as any other good filters on the market

OEM filter every time. 9th gen. Why cheap out?I’m already saving 50 bucks changing the oil myself might as well invest it back in the car.

I only use the OEM filters. They do the job perfectly, I have no reason to try my luck with a different one.

8th gen Si sedan. Honda filter only! They cost about the same as whatever shit filter you're going to buy at autozone anyway.

No one ever talks about this but the truth is the oil itself will always way outlast the oil filter. What you should be worried about is the paper filter, not the oil! Can your paper oil filter withstand 10k miles in between changes before slowly disintegrating into the oil? If you use a high quality OEM filter then the answer is yes. I use the original Mahle brand filters for my Audi.

i do run the factory filters on the s2000 as they're cheap and very good quality.

I only use Honda oil filters. I would say the filter is far more important than what brand oil you use.

Daca imi aduc aminte, doar un filtru de ulei de la Mahle a venit diferit fata de cel pe care il luasem inainte cu un an; Made in China vs Made in Austria.

After an oil change, the car shot most of the oil out from the filter. I installed a brand new Mahle filter, tightening it snug. After a short drive, it again shot all the oil out of the filter, with the gasket forced to the outside.
