Five quarts of Honda's current full synthetic, the correct filter, and a fresh drain plug with washer. No working out part numbers, no discovering you're a quart short, and no reusing a crush washer that's already been crushed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy A Kit Rather Than Separate Orders\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOil changes are the most common job anyone does on their own car, and they're also the one where people cut a corner they shouldn't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe usual version is buying oil and a filter, then reusing the drain plug washer because it looked fine. That washer is designed to deform once, sealing against the pan as it crushes. Reused, it doesn't seal the same way, and you get a slow weep that either stains your driveway or has you overtightening the plug to stop it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOvertightening a drain plug into an aluminum pan is how people end up with stripped threads and a repair costing hundreds. A fresh washer every time prevents that, and it costs almost nothing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit includes one, along with a new drain plug, so there's nothing left to improvise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e0W-20 Or 5W-20?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCheck your owner's manual or your oil cap, because Honda specifies one and they aren't interchangeable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first number is cold viscosity. A \u003cstrong\u003e0W-20\u003c\/strong\u003e flows more readily at low temperature, which means faster circulation on a cold start. A \u003cstrong\u003e5W-20\u003c\/strong\u003e is slightly thicker cold. Both behave the same once the engine is warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMost modern Hondas call for 0W-20. Some older applications specify 5W-20. Go by what your engine requires rather than assuming thinner is better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eConfirm Your Filter Fits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit ships with the 15400-RTA-A01 filter or equivalent, which covers a large portion of the Honda and Acura lineup but not all of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorth a quick check against your car before ordering, since Honda uses more than one filter across their range and the wrong one won't thread on. If you're not sure, the part number on your current filter is the fastest way to confirm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout The Oil\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"#\"\u003eHRC Formula R\u003c\/a\u003e is what replaced Honda's Ultimate Full Synthetic, developed with Phillips 66, the same partner running oil in Honda's IMSA program. It meets the current \u003cstrong\u003eGF-7A\u003c\/strong\u003e standard, a step up from the GF-6 that came before, along with API SQ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGF-7A arrived in 2025 because small turbocharged direct-injected engines broke what came before it. The headline addition is low-speed pre-ignition protection, which matters on a 1.5T, 2.0T, or K20C where LSPI can destroy a piston in a single event. The standard also tightens wear limits and improves protection for turbochargers, timing chains, and valvetrains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eChange It On Time\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe advice worth more than anything else on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eModern Hondas use a maintenance minder that calculates interval based on how you drive, and it's genuinely good. The problem is people stretching past it, or assuming their driving is normal when it isn't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShort trips, stop and go traffic, towing, track days, and cold climates all count as severe service. A turbocharged engine sitting hot after shutdown is harder on oil than a naturally aspirated one that cooled gradually. If that describes your driving, change it sooner than the minder suggests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGood oil run too long protects worse than adequate oil changed on schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's In The Kit\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e5 quarts HRC Formula R full synthetic, 0W-20 or 5W-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOil filter, 15400-RTA-A01 or equivalent\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOil drain plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDrain plug crush washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHonda and Acura engines specifying 0W-20 or 5W-20 and using the 15400-RTA-A01 filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSelect your viscosity at checkout.
