'03 CR-V Oil filter...new one looks smaller
I just had my first oil change at the dealer. I had looked at the factory
filter before the work was done. The new filter is blue like the old one, but the diameter looks much smaller...this sound right? Anyone have the part # it should be? |

The mounting flange is the same. However, this parts tech was uncertain if the filter media had changed or just the size of the can. It's likely that both have changed. One thing of interest that he did mention to me was that the supplier for the new smaller filters was Fram (made in Canada) and that the Filtech filters (made in USA) will not be available in the smaller size. He also seemed doubtful that the older style Filtech filters would continue to be available for much longer. Eric |

The much superior filter will be phased out in favor of the cardboard specials. Thanks, but I'd use a Hastings LF-402 instead. --- Bror Jace |

If you want ..
to protect your vehicle from the wear, friction, noise and costly engine problems. to make your engine oil cleaner. to reduce engine wear and friction. to extend your engine and transmission life. then, check this out, and put it on your oil filter. http://www.turbo-mag.ca "Bror Jace" <brorjace@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:d1373663.0309021836.6fe0fa44@posting.google.c om... > Eric <say.no@spam.now> wrote in message news:<3F53E0C2.2B4D497C@spam.now>... > > Nobody wrote: > One > > thing of interest that he did mention to me was that the supplier for the new > > smaller filters was Fram (made in Canada) and that the Filtech filters (made in > > USA) will not be available in the smaller size.

Re: '03 CR-V Oil filter...new one looks smaller
Yes this is normal. Honda jsut changed oil filters and went to the smaller
one acros the models. Dont be alarmed, it ahs the same quality as the other filter but in a smaller package.

Iron (magnetic) and steel alloy is being used in many engine parts. Even aluminum blocks use iron cylinder sleeves. The wear of these cylinder liner, valve and gear train, oil pump etc... can cause excessive oil consumption, abnormal engine noise, performance problems, oil pressure, abnormal operating temperatures, stuck/broken piston rings etc... Let's see some of the used oil analysis; ----------------------------------------- 2001 Camry, V-6 engine .... 80% city/20% highway driving Miles on engine, 26000 miles on oil, 7200 No makeup oil added OEM paper air filter SDF-57 oil filter Wear Metals Fe, 21 ppm Cr, 0 ppm Pb, 4 ppm Cu, 8 ppm Sn, 1 ppm Al, 9 ppm Ni/Ag/Mn, 0 ppm ------------------------------------------ 1999 Honda Civic 106hp, 1.6L engine, 5 speed manual 0w30 Castrol Syntec 5500 miles on oil/47,000 miles on engine No fuel or oil additives NAPA Gold oil filter OEM air filter Oil was run from March 23 to July 3 (15 weeks) Average of 366 miles per week No top up oil Oil capacity is 4.2 qts This car is driven mostly on the highway (but with lots of stop and go/heavy traffic) This was the first interval with this oil, previous oil was SL formula TriSynthetic Mobil 1 5w30 Mobil 1 5w30 Castrol 0w30 8000 miles 5500 miles .. Iron 19 14 Lead 10 4.5 Aluminum 5.2 2.5 Copper 3.8 3.0 Silicon 8 11 Nickel 0.1 0 Chromium 3 0.8 Titanium 0.1 0 Tin 0.2 0 Silver 0.4 0.2 Vanadium 0.2 0 Potassium 0 0 ------------------------------------------ Fe(iron) is magnetic and the most wear in thses casees. Unfortunatly, Iron can cause more wear of non-magnetic metal such as Cu(Copper) and Al(Aluminuim), since iron and steel is harder than them and circulating in the engine parts. Regular magnets from computer hard drive or toy don't have enough strength, also, they lose a great deal of magnetic strength with high temperature from engine block and oil. Try to use the oil filter magnet after thousands miles driving, cut and open your oil filter, then you'll see what is in it for sure. Simply, It works. BE. |
