Oil filter OEM Honda or Mobil
Ex: OEM Honda RTA oil filter with a new crush washer is $8 from my dealer
Plus a Mobil1 20K filter.
I’d be willing to spend a little more for the OEM oil filter
Might not make a difference, but the Honda oil filters are the best in the business.
Usually AutoZone near me runs a deal: but 5 quarts of Mobile 1, get a discount on the Mobile 1 filter...
It's worked for over a decade.
I've had my truck nearly 30 years now and DIY'd DOZENS of oil changes. I've not once used an OEM filter. I use whatever's on sale, preferably K&N or Mobil 1, but often Fram or Purolator or whatever was on sale.
I can count on zero hands the number of times the brand of filter has affected my Taco.
if your car is stock, you don't have to worry too much about the oil and filter. i think last time i went with a mobile 1 filter and their extended performance oil but I have used other brands too. any OEM filter will be fine.
I prefer mobil 1 or wix filters, mobil 1 or castrol oil usually
I have switched back and forth between Toyota 0W-16 with a Toyota oil filter and Mobil 1 0W-16 with a Mobil 1 oil filter. I have noticed no difference in performance, fuel mileage or metal wear between the two oils.
I had a 2002 Honda CR-V and the oil filter was mounted horizontally on the back of the engine. You had to reach through the RH front wheel well with the wheel removed or turned all the way to the left. Making a mess was completely unavoidable.
