Oil filter OEM Honda or Mobil
I’ve got a 2013 3.5 eb and I change my oil every 4k miles. I do my own changes and use Mobil 1 full synthetic 5w30 with a Mobil 1 oil filter.
AcDelco filters and Mobil 1 filters are always good options to pick from. Don't get the 4 dollar Fram, please.
Try using an OEM Honda '03' oil filter (the filter code ends in 03). This should solve the noise it makes only when the engine is cold. This happens because other filters don't retain the oil properly, causing a slight delay of about a second when you start the car to lubricate the timing chain, resulting in the noise.
Mobil 1 filters are fine. I use them all the time in my E92 and I'm at 250k miles with ZERO engine issues. My car is used for commuting and has no modifications to it.
I chose to use Mobil1 0w16 oil and a Mobil1 oil filter ...made in Vietnam.
I had a similar thing happen on a 07 Honda Civic. Ended up being a bad oil filter ( split at a seam- deemed a manufacturer defect ).
Been using honda 0w-20 and honda oil filter sa city ko and no problem so far since regular naman pagpapalit ko ng oil.
Im using mobil 1 extended performance with the factory oil filter...so far so good.
So that DTC sets when there is an oil pressure issue originating from the oil filter up to the bank 2 VTC solenoid and actuator, using an aftermarket item could possibly lend to this issue
I ordered these 15400-RTA-003 oil filters on eBay for my FL5. The box and shrink wrap don't match the photos in any of the listings I've seen on and off eBay, except for this one place, which seems kind of suspicious.
