I ordered these 15400-RTA-003 oil filters on eBay for my FL5. The box and shrink wrap don't match the photos in any of the listings I've seen on and off eBay, except for this one place, which seems kind of suspicious.

So that DTC sets when there is an oil pressure issue originating from the oil filter up to the bank 2 VTC solenoid and actuator, using an aftermarket item could possibly lend to this issue
Try using an OEM Honda '03' oil filter (the filter code ends in 03). This should solve the noise it makes only when the engine is cold. This happens because other filters don't retain the oil properly, causing a slight delay of about a second when you start the car to lubricate the timing chain, resulting in the noise.
i’d like to introduce you to the honda k series. filter on back of engine, hard to reach from top, hard to reach from bottom, easiest but still hard from wheel well. oh and if it’s a honda element or CRV, it pisses oil all down your subframe and axle shaft.
I had a 2002 Honda CR-V and the oil filter was mounted horizontally on the back of the engine. You had to reach through the RH front wheel well with the wheel removed or turned all the way to the left. Making a mess was completely unavoidable.
I had a similar thing happen on a 07 Honda Civic. Ended up being a bad oil filter ( split at a seam- deemed a manufacturer defect ).
Been using honda 0w-20 and honda oil filter sa city ko and no problem so far since regular naman pagpapalit ko ng oil.
Honda doesn't make oil filter. You are wasting your money.
Buy brand like Fram or bosh, following maintenance schedule the the only really important thing.
I typically buy OEM filters from the maintenance website section for dreamshop.honda.com
I set my order to be picked up at the dealer months prior to any oil changes. The filter is always blue.
You should definitely change the oil. I always recommend doing an oil change when you buy a car. When I bought my 22 civic and took it to service (because it was still in warranty) the mechanic told me it was a great thing i brought it in because the filter was so loose that he basically did 2 turns before oil started coming out. You never want to risk anything.
