I'm wondering if anyone here happens to know which Mobil 1 Oil Filter
would apply to a 2005 Honda CR-V SE?

I used Mobil 1 High-Efficiency Oil Filters on my '89 and '97 Honda
Civics for many years without a problem, but for some odd reason, I
cannot seem to locate the specific filter part number for the '05 CR-V.
I used number M1-104 on the Civics and I'm thinking that number M1-110
should work on the CR-V, but I haven't been able to confirm or
cross-referenece this either on-line or at the automotive parts store.

Any input and insight on this little dilemma would be very much
appreciated. Thank you very much in advance for your time and
consideration!

the new "thimble" sized Honda filters are very good the part # is
15400-PLM-A01.

I know the Mobil 1's are very good, too but if you can't find a cross
with the Mobil...I woudn't fret as the same tiny filter is on all the
new Honda's, even the bigger V6's.

be sure to make sure you have removed the gasket from the block, if it
sticks. They had a problem with sticking to the older CRV's.

 

If there are any other interested CR-V owners around, I called the
Mobil Oil Corporation at 1-800-ASK-MOBIL (that's 1-800-275-66245) and
they indicated having only one Mobil 1 High Efficiency Oil Filter
available for the 2005 CR-V's four-cylinder, 2.4-Litre iVTEC engine:
it's part number M1-110.

Have A Great Day!

 

Is there REALLY a difference in the oil filters (Mobil 1 vs Honda OEM)? If
so, I might consider it.

i dont see anything bout the mobil1 *filter* that makes it worth $10.
stick with OEM and mobil1 oil.

 

Yeah, that sounds about right. With 10,000 factory-recommended oil changes,
Mobil 1 gives me a little more comfidence to actually go that long.

Mobil introduced the M1 EP filter because they introduced EP oil. As far as I know, they are the only filters guaranteed to perform for 15,000 miles.

The Honda filters are 3,000 mile filters.

If you plan to change your M1 oil every 10,000 miles, as I do, you have limited options: M1-110 or M1-104, Bosch L3323, and Purolator PSL14610.

 

In fairness to the competition, I must also add the FRAM XG7317 and Pennzoil HPZ-37 to my list.
