Start with the application branch
Confirm generation, engine code, filter housing type, thread or center-bore dimensions, gasket outside diameter and whether the request includes a drain washer or housing seal.
A similar outside diameter does not confirm bypass-valve calibration, thread engagement or sealing-seat position. Do not infer an extended service interval from filter appearance.
Identification checkpoints before price comparison
For engine oil filters, record generation and engine family, verify spin-on or cartridge construction, and photograph thread or center bore and seal diameter on both the installed and removed component.
Scoped OE reference
| Reference | Catalogue scope used for identification |
|---|---|
| 15400-RTA-003 | Selected 2017–2024 Civic gasoline applications in the reviewed catalogue; verify exact engine, market and current replacement before use. |
Reference 15400-RTA-003 is retained only as a engine oil filters identification lead; the submitted vehicle, installed component and any later supersession must remain within its stated catalogue boundary.
Common order boundaries
Build a comparable B2B order line
Keep engine branches and filter constructions on separate SKU lines; specify individual boxes or workshop multipacks and do not combine a filter-only quote with a complete service pack.
Quote spin-on filter separately from cartridge element, documenting trial and repeat quantity, destination, Incoterm, label requirements and included hardware for that SKU.
Export packing checkpoint
Protect threads and sealing faces, keep cartridge media dry and prevent carton compression from deforming gaskets.
Common buyer questions
Which Civic details separate engine oil filters variants?
Confirm generation, engine code, filter housing type, thread or center-bore dimensions, gasket outside diameter and whether the request includes a drain washer or housing seal. Record generation and engine family, spin-on or cartridge construction and thread or center bore and seal diameter before comparing candidates.
What should a engine oil filter photograph show?
Photograph the complete installed location and removed component, then add clear views of thread or center bore and seal diameter, mounting points and every connector, port or seal. Use named endpoints and units for any measurement.
How should the listed OE reference be used for Engine Oil Filters?
For engine oil filters, the displayed reference is a narrow catalogue starting point only. Keep its visible vehicle boundary attached and confirm the installed component plus any later supersession before quotation.
How should spin-on filter be prepared for export?
Keep engine branches and filter constructions on separate SKU lines; specify individual boxes or workshop multipacks and do not combine a filter-only quote with a complete service pack. Protect threads and sealing faces, keep cartridge media dry and prevent carton compression from deforming gaskets. State quantity per SKU, destination, packing and buyer-label requirements separately.
