2026 Honda Ridgeline Oil Filters

[stchman]

Hello all.

I just purchased a 2026 Honda Ridgeline. I do my own oil changes so I was wanting to buy a bunch of filters.

I will be changing the oil about every 5000 - 6000 miles.

Are Walmart Supertech brand oil filters acceptable? I have used the Supertech oil filters in the past on other cars and they appear to work just fine.

I got rid of my 2018 GMC Canyon and I used Fram TG filters and Supertech 5W30 synthetic oil and never had a problem as far as lubrication.

I am wary of buying oil filters on ebay as there are rumors of MANY fakes.

Thanks.

I've been pleased with the upper end Supertech filters; decent construction and build quality, overall.
Just realize that any brand can have issues these days; nothing seems immune from the quality woes in the filter world.

Supertech no longer offers the 'proper' 7317 sized filter and supersedes it with the smaller 6607. I doubt it makes any difference in the grand scheme of things though....

Check out the Pentius 7317

Often available on Amazon in 12 packs. Lots of C&Ps posted on this site.

I stocked up on the Carquest Premium 84356 for mine. It had the OEM style P gasket and from the cut and post pics I’ve seen, it seems like a good filter.

If you don’t have an Advance Auto Parts near you, they’ll ship free with a $35 order.

I used to use Wix 57356 (never accused of being a bargain but I only use 2 per year) until I bought the new Wix air filter and saw how cheap it was made. I've since gone back to Purolator One PL14610. Occasionally Menards will run some oddball sale and I can get them for only a couple bucks more than Supertech.

This forum consists mostly of analites... don't get paralyzed by all the nonsense here. You won't see 100s of vehicles on the shoulder incapacitated by oil filter failures...

Nothing wrong with buying a filter when needed through your local dealer if concerned

What's important to you in terms of oil filters? If you don't care about efficiency, then just go OEM since the vehicle is under warranty and that will remove any dealership hassles if something goes wrong with the engine because the dealer will most likely blame any non OEM part first, regardless if it was the cause or not.

Under warranty use OEM and keep receipts. Sometimes they deny warranty if OEM is not used.
Suggest by a Honda Care warranty too. Ask me how I know....

Where's the fun in injecting pragmatism into a discussion here?

it’s just a fram TG in a blue can. nothing special and certainly better options out there. you are not required to use a OEM filter.

Anything on Ebay is a roll of the dice - unless you find a confirmed dealer selling there.

Plenty of Super Tech oil filters Cut & Posted on here and they look decent to me. For 5K you would be fine. I personally wouldnt run over 5K though.

Sells a lot of other Honda stuff, along with non-Honda stuff. I say this seller is 100% safe and the Maxell, made in Japan batteries are a bonus.

If I had a nice new 26 Ridgeline I’d be running Carquest Premium, Microgard Select, or Premium Guard EX filters.

If you’re going to stick to OEM, I’d use this part # specifically. 15400-RTA-003. It is a Mahle filter made in Japan. All of the cut and posts I’ve seen (and the ones that I’ve cut) have looked great as far as build quality goes. Note that no one can confirm their efficiency, but they are likely to have a much lower filtering efficiency compared to some of the other options in the market.

Glenda W mentioned some of the better performing filters currently available. If it were mine, I’d use one from that list. But, if you’re sticking with OEM, the 15400-RTA-003 is the filter you want.

Buy it from a known reliable retailer. Preferably not Amazon or eBay. But, there may be some honest retailers on there. Do your homework.

Also, some retailers will try to substitute the A02 filter if you buy the 003 part number. Make sure you are getting the 003.

Blue can Honda = Orange can Fram

I used OEM for my Civic for a few changes, but stopped, because better filters are available.

The "warranty" reasoning for using OEM is without merit. Use what filter and oil you prefer.

it’s just a fram TG in a blue can.

Doubt it has the same media as the Fram TG, no way Honda OEM filters are that efficient.
