The Honda Oil Filter Thread

[Sqauredup]

The PG is a fine choice or if you shop at Advance it’s Carquest Premium, OReillys it’s Microgard Select(these are all PGI made). If Walmart is your preference the new Mobil 1 filter is a great option now.

Are we talking the Mobil 1 M1-110A?

You’d have to look up your specific vehicle. I don’t know off the top of my head.

That is the M1, 7317/Honda A02 equivalent.

At times I think about this and think it matters, but I doubt it does.... Nissan uses a 6607 on every engine unless it's in an SUV, truck, or van and that's obviously only for space/clearance reasons (same engine in a car uses a 6607, but in an SUV it uses a 7317). Last time I needed a Honda filter, I went to Walmart and discovered like you that they got rid of their 7317 and have substituted the 6607. I bought the 6607, used it, and it will be fine....

The 6607 is a teacup like the 7712. IMO I’d never run a filter that small longer than 5k miles even if it is a high-efficiency filter. Almost always, depending on protection from the engine/frame, a larger filter is always a benefit. Slower flow through the media will always result in higher relative filter efficiency.

Well now, this is how I like it. 160sq in of media that’s 99% at 20 micron, designed for high flow, well-made in Korea and $56 a case, shipped!!

Nice score. In fact I just installed one today!

Did they ever answer the emails with the detailed efficiency number?

So a Honda Pilot running Full Synthetic with over 300k miles(estimated, someone changed the cluster before I bought it)shows 200k should be fine with Microguard Select for 4k intervals? Vehicle IS short tripped if that matters

A pilot with 300,000 miles in Vegas I wouldn't be running the 0w-20 .

 

[Vegasguy]

Mines an 04 that calls for 5w-20. I run 5w30 in it instead

I would run whatever oil was run previously, to bring the car to 300k. If 0W-20, so be it.

A 4k oci is a walk in the park for a Microgard Select. Sleep well.

I never sent them email, that was someone else. But the claim for UFXL is on the box and their website and suffices for my purposes.

@DannyM called a couple years ago and I called myself a couple months ago to reconfirm 99%@20 microns.

Question on the pentius/ pg and even the old fram xg series. My Civic spends a few weekends at track events its just a stock k24z nothing special, wondering at high rpm would these filters go into by pass?
Should I look at a mid grade option like say the purolator one with less filtering ability and im assuming with that more flow?

The One has their best stated rating on the website. See rating at the bottom. You could buy a Toyo Roki it should have little restriction due to the air gaps in the media.

If your oil is at operating temperature then I wouldn't worry about any of those oil filters going into bypass. What oil viscosity are you running?

Except the M+H spec sheet shows 99% @ 25u for the PL30001. So like the Boss once showed, the Purolator website doesn't match the spec sheet. The M+H Pres should have had them also update the website like they did for the Boss. Still not a bad efficiency. Some PureOne filters are 99% @ 30u or 40u per spec sheets.

either 0w20 or 0w30
