2016 Honda City: Buying Oil Filter, need to buy a new washer?

[Athrunzala]

My father bought a 2nd-hand 2016 Honda City and we would be having its change oil so I went to a Honda Showroom. The Officer there sold us an oil filter around 500 pesos. But I was surprised that I need to buy also a washer drain which looks like an O-ring. In the future when I would buy from a neighborhood car accessories store, do I still need to buy that 0-ring washer drain because it seems they are only selling VIC oil filter but it does not have any 0-ring in its package, and I don't want to go to the Casa again because their parts is too expensive...

Any Honda City owners' experiences out there?

The oil filter is original.. marami mura sa market but it's fake. Its only 500 lng naman...

Hi

What Honda usually provides is a crush washer. If it isn't replaced, and the condition is already too thin, then it will take too much torque to seal it and could be a cause for an oil leak from the pan.

Hope this helps.

i have been having my oil changed at the hecho derecho gas station, for many years now.
they install vic filters, and they always have that washer. mechanic says it comes with the filter.

the washer is designed for single-use only.
but i know of folks, me included, who did use that washer over and over...

so if you used the old one, what did you do to the new washers you bought po?

that was many years ago, when we were young and "adventurous".
we re-used the washers, because we did not have new ones.
that was also the time, when we became experts at push-starting, because we could not buy new battery.
we would even have individual cells in our battery re-built, because they were cheaper than buying whole batteries.

yung honda filter nasa 500 na???? Ang mahal naman eh magbaldwin or fleetguard na lang ako.
