Affordable and Reusable
Size: 2.0L
The engine filter was really affordable it cost less then $15. I bought this filter because it was recommended from a family friend. It fitted my honda civic perfectly. Replacing the filter was so easy to replace. Replacing or changing the filter was easy it only took a few mins to do. The quality of the filter is really good and it feels like its perfect for my car. I would buy this filter over and over again thats how great it is.

Works great on my 2018 Honda Civic EX
Size: 2.0L, Size: 2.0L
Been buying these for years. They are relatively cheap and easy to replace, so much better than getting ripped off at the dealer lmao. Compatibility and Installation - 5/5 Filtration Efficiency and Performance - 5/5 Durability and Value for Money - 4/5 - these are made to be replaced, so can't really do much about that!
