$1/quart is a steal! I've used Havoline many times in my vehicles over the years. Love the stuff.

For what it's worth, I'm nearing 640,000 miles on my K24, never rebuilt and still runs great. I think you're worrying too much, these engines are near bulletproof. 6-9k changes on bulk dealership oil for the first 570,000 miles or so. Just buy whichever correctly rated 5W-20 that makes the most...

Edit: Erroneous post.

Do you have the room for something like this? I almost always use one of these unless it's a rare situation where it won't fit. They adjust to the size of your filter rather than needing to use a regular single sized cap wrench.

I have no hesitation against using a good quality filter if it's been sitting around for a few years in a climate controlled environment. If it was sitting in a garage for a decade with hot/cold/moisture/salt/etc. I probably wouldn't want to use it. I store mine in my basement and have for a...

They're fine. I avoided regular Fram filters for years, but reconsidered them after my previous preference (Purolator) started having QC issues with pleat tearing. I've used the 7317 on my Accord a few times, and their filters on other vehicles over the years and haven't had a major issue. I had...

I have a few more than 150k miles on my Accord. 635,xxx miles as of now. Oil changed per the OLM since new. Dealership bulk oil for the first 570k or so, then changed every 5-7k using high mileage synthetic 5W-20 for the most part or whatever's on sale. Original engine, not rebuilt.

Brake issues that you already mentioned and interior issues. I will say that my Accord tends to chew through brakes pretty quick as well. I want to say they also had suspension design issues wearing tires prematurely but that may have been the Civic.

Some 7th gen Accords are built in Japan, but most were made in Ohio. 2008 was 8th gen and in my opinion, had more issues. I’d stick to 7th gen.

Over 630,000 miles and still going strong. Runs and drives like new. I’ve only had a few minor issues with it over the past few years, mainly with rusty bolts breaking off when replacing the air filter, license plate, etc. also had rear stabilizer bushings replaced and i replaced the blower...

I've stopped some small leaks with Valvoline MaxLife, and the old Pennzoil High Mileage (conventional) a number of years ago.

07 Honda Accord - 633,128 miles - 10% on OLM, just under 9 months, 5,731 miles. Doesn't get driven much anymore, working from home. Out: Valvoline MaxLife Synthetic 5W-20/Mobil 1 M1-110 In: Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage 5W-20/Fram Extra Guard PH7317

2005 Toyota Sienna 3.3L V6 - 206,584 miles 8,245 miles in approx. 7 months, burned 1 quart in that timeframe. At time of change, it was just a hair below the add mark. Out: Mobil Super High Mileage 10W-30/Fram Extra Guard PH3614 In: Castrol GTX Magnatec Synthetic Blend 5W-30/Champion COS3614

They do that with the K24 as well. I've had to replace it on both 2007 Accords I maintain. Luckily they're not too tough to replace.

1998 Camaro Z28 128,420 miles 1 year, 25 days on OCI. 1,143 miles on OCI (I thought it was closer to 2-3k) I was itching to change it since I knew the filter had been on there for 2 years, but I guess I should've waited until next spring. Out: Mobil 1 High Mileage 5W-30, Fram Pro Synthetic that...
