How do you know what kind of oil filter to buy for your car? My manual just tells me about the kind of oil to use and how to change the oil and filter, but says nothing about the filter's specifications.
The car is an 02' Acura RSX. I don't just need to know of some filters that work with my car, that's easy information to find. I need to know how to tell what filter is right for a certain car, and why.Car oil filters - how do you know what kind to get?
there is a good study on them here :)

The auto supply has a chart to tell you what filter to use on your car
Stick with the OEM filter and your dealer shop will be happier too especially if you ask for warranty engine repair! It's the only one they trust to work on your car. Wix is a good commercial brand of aftermarket filters.
The best source should be the Acura dealership service or parts dept.
Most automotive filters are pretty much the same. However the Acura filter has some special design features that you will not find in an aftermarket brand. Read the information below to decide whether it's worthwhile to buy the OEM filter.
