I know this has probably ask and answered millions of time. It's time to change my oil and i can't the oil filter use. I guess the car is to new. What kind of oil filters do you guys use? I have a 2008 FIT sport MT. I hope that this helps.

 

Buy an oil filter wrench from a parts store, or strap wrench from a hardware store.

 

well i ment the oil filter its self. none of the auto parts store around have them in the book

 

if u go to autozone, they can look it up for you, and if they dont have it in stock, u can usually get it next day... mke sure you use full synthetic oil, i personally use mobil 1 and fram tough guard filter... good luck!

 

2007 use the same filter as 2008...Fram sucks... get Pure One or Purolator oil filters

 

Current Vehicle: Year: 2007 Make: Honda Model: Fit Engine Type: 4cyl. 1.5Liter VTEC

Filter matches for the vehicle you selected:
Mobil 1 Mobil 1 Model M1-110 Other options Fram Model PH7317 This website contains the most current information available at the time of website launching, and is updated periodically. Always consult your vehicle manufacturer's manual for information specific to your automobile.

The above is a quote from another poster in this thread https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...questions.html , there is a lot of good information there if you have the patience to read it through.

 

Sorry man, I misunderstood. "I can't the oil filter use" looked like you might mean "I can't get the oil filter loose".

 

buy an oem filter from the dealership, and for the record all newer honda's (aside from the s2000) use the same filter. I guess that statement does not apply if you're driving a Honda vehicle that was not designed and built by honda though (passport, and the big ugly as acura suv)

 

I second that. Buy an oem filter.

 

You might want to edit your initial post to make it easier to understand.
(although I think its a bit late...but anywho...)

And indeed as said before I would just go to the dealer and pick up an OEM one.

good luck

 

7317 is a pretty standard size, I used the Walmart Supertech filters on my old Civic... they're made at Champion Labs (same place that makes the Mobil 1 stuff)

 

Filters are Fram and readily available at WalMart for about $3-4. I want to say 7311 but memory fails me look it up in the application book.

 

i only rock oem. but if i have to the same filters at k&n.

fram filters suck.

 

i called my local autozone, and i'm picking up K & N in the morning. so thanks for all the help.

 

If you believe the websites where they cut the filters apart that is. According to the WIX website, oil filter 51356 fits the Fit. WIX has the air filter and cabin air filter as well. The filters are the same just sold under a different brand name. WIX is hard to find and usually costs more. NAPA Gold filters can be found at any NAPA store obviously.
