After the A01's ceased production I moved to Bosch and Wix filters.
I don't have it all figured out, but whatever my mechanic tends to install causes the engine to run louder. The A01 filters were much quieter, even than A02.
I've used the A02 filter many times, and got them in bulk from Amazon. They're good. When I buy from the dealer, I get a 003 instead -- fewer holes, and made by Tennex instead of Honeywell. I find it easier to get A02 on the aftermarket at a better price, so usually go with that.
The A02 oem Honda filter is made by the same company that makes FRAM filters, Under the blue paint, it is identical to the FRAM/Honeywell Tough Guard filter Line. Decent filter. Def better options available though.
I change my oil when the maintainance minder gets to 50% with 0w20 and a Honda filter and don't bother resetting it.
Ex: OEM Honda RTA oil filter with a new crush washer is $8 from my dealer
I’d be willing to spend a little more for the OEM oil filter
Might not make a difference, but the Honda oil filters are the best in the business.
I’ve picked up parts for my Acty off the shelf at my local Honda dealer on more than one occasion. They use the same Honda OEM oil filters that can be picked up anywhere. The Actys also share a ton of common parts with US sold Hondas of the same era. I’ve had zero issues finding parts for my Actys and often times the parts are inexpensive
I drive a Honda diesel in the UK. No matter where I look (although I don't look for big drums) oil plus filter is about $100 for me to buy and fit. My village shop would charge less but they wouldn't use the correct grade of oil and probably not a genuine filter.
Just a regular Honda PLM filter. Engine was designed with that filter in mind. Still under warranty as well, rather use oem.
