would you believe it if I told you FRAM is the OEM manufacturer of Honda's filters?

Do a little research.

And people use FRAM as an excuse why Checker/Schucks/Kragens is a horrible chain...

thats old news

 

That's why even though I work at a Honda dealership and have access to basically unlimited free filters, I don't use them.

 

wow thats like 5 year old news lol

 

who makes honda's headgasket's?

 

If you want a good quality filter, get one from you ford dealership, Part number FL810. They have a very high quality filter media(twice the amount of surface area than a fram), metal bypass valve and metal endcaps. Most filters have cardboard endcaps which can leak causing unfiltered oil to bypass the filter media.

 

last time i checked my honda filter it was made by filtech. there are two types

I change mine every 3k. lol

 

i use honda filters because they are pretty and blue... ooooh

 

The same reason I use Honda coolant

LOL, how many passes of the 12,000 do you have left.

BTW, I've used fram filters with no problems.

 

Haha, yeah, it poped into my head so I had to post it.

I agree in the Nippon assumption too.

As for the fram filters: I change the filter every 1,000 miles

 

i heard that honda oil filters were made by honey...something, just what i heard anyone else hear that are they for sure made by fram

 

honeywell = fram, there is a second company that manufactures honda filters, filtech.

 

Just get the Toyo Roki S2000 Honda filter. They're made in Japan. Off the top of my head I think the numbers are 15400-PCX-004.

 

The price differences are not that much apart....depends on which is easier to obtain. FRAMS at Wal-mart.....much less expensive + the oil too..LOL

 

Hamp oil filters

 

I just use the Wix oil filters..

 

purolator pureONE filters FTW!! cant be beat

HAMP=S2000 filter, both made by the same company. They're identical, except one is green and twice the price.

They have great filtration, like the Mobil 1, but are supposedly too restrictive.

ive never heard that before. i would have to see something supporting that claim. ive been running them forever and never had any problems so i guess that is proof enough for me.

 

What are you guys thoughts on these re-usable filters?
