17mm is the same size as my acura v6..... sort of actually it seems a hair smaller yet it works fine a 16mm is to small no sae sizes seems to come as close as 17mm also the acura takes the same filter just started changing my own again after years of having the monkeys do it and the dealer is kinda far from our domocile. ALSO IF ANYBODY HAS ANY REAL DATA ON DIFFERENCES BEWTWEEN BRANDS OF OIL I WOIULD LIKE TO SEE IT(HAVE NOT SEARCHED THE SITE YET BUT I AM THINKING ITS FULL OF OPINIONS BASED ON GRAN PAPPYS THEORYS

oil change was easy

I was able to get to the drain bolt and filter wihtout having to raise the Pilot, and was able to remove and replace filter without any tools.

Yeah i forgot you do have to turn the wheel to get at the filter

Crush washer I have not seen a strong case either way... have not noticed any leaks reusing not replacing but i have only done 1 so far

my goal is to be quick enough to get the drain bolt out without having the oil get on my hand ... i have not reached my goal yet;)

I like the grip on Fram filters and they are resonably priced
