i was going 2 change the oil in my crx and was wondering wat kind of oil filter i should use that would work if i cant get a honda oil filter. or if that even matters. and how many quarts of oil it takes. the engine is a d16z6. thanks

 

I use HAMP oil filters, (Honda Aftermarket Parts)
but you can use whatever filter you'd like just don't go cheap on it. Hamp filters are 8-10$

 

CRX is like 4 quarts of oil.

Auto parts stores will have plenty of filters from different brands to fit your motor. There is book next to the filters to tell you which ones to get, or you can ask for help at the counter. Don't buy the cheap FRAM filters. They are made of cardboard inside...

The Honda or Acura dealerships will have zillions of the OEM filters in stock which are excellent (almost all Hondas use the same filter). The nice thing about Honda is that they usually provide you with a new drain plug washer every time you buy a filter. The drain plug washer should be replaced every time you remove the oil drain plug on the oil pan. Filter should be around $8 each at Honda...

 

^ guess what? The company "Honeywell" makes Fram, AND now makes Honda filters too!
They are no longer any better than using fram.

NAPA gold filters are the best out there from parts stores for the price.

There is a TON of good info on bobistheoilguy.com

 

k&n is good too

 

i always use fram, mainly cause im bias towards them since my dad works for honeywell

 

I use whatevers cheap at the autoparts store. I haven't had a problem in 7 years.

 

I like S2000 filters.

They're the same size as the original filter.

 

BEWARE of cheap Honda OEM oil filters and others...all the info about good and bad quality oil filters in the video below...!!!

You can tell how scientific the video by how many times he curses and his discussion of how shiny the material inside is.

 

wah dah Faaaaaaa.
Is Duh Sayme Shiiiiiiiiii

Anyways, I generally buy HAMP filters not quite sure the quality but i buy them anyways.

Spoon Sports sells them on their website, too.

 

fram 3593 oil filter, screw it, its a filter not saying its the best but its the right fram filter for your car.
