I bought two Honda oil filters — one from my local dealership and one from Amazon advertised as “Genuine Honda.” Visually, they looked identical. Same paint. Same stamping. Same packaging. So I put them to the test. In this video, I: • Compare packaging and labeling • Measure dimensions and weight • Perform a filter cup fitment test • Cut both filters open • Compare bypass valves, anti-drainback valves, base plates, and filtration media • Count pleats and measure thickness No hype. No drama. Just a real garage comparison to determine whether the Amazon filters are truly genuine Honda parts. If you’re buying OEM parts online and wondering if they’re authentic, this test may help you decide. Let me know in the comments — would you trust the Amazon filter? 0:00 – Intro: Dealer vs Amazon “Genuine” Honda Filter 0:37 – Sticker & Label Comparison (Fake vs Real Check) 1:41 – Packaging Comparison (Shrink Wrap Details) 2:19 – Exterior Paint & Markings Inspection 3:50 – Weight Comparison Test 4:40 – Honda OEM Filter Cup Fit Test 6:00 – Diameter & Height Measurements 7:16 – Across-the-Flats Measurement 7:44 – Cutting Open Dealer Filter 9:01 – Cutting Open Amazon Filter 10:27 – Bypass Valve Comparison 11:24 – Anti-Drainback Valve Comparison 11:47 – Base Plate Comparison 12:18 – Internal Component Weights 12:59 – Filter Media Comparison (Color & Build) 14:03 – Can Thickness Measurements 15:19 – Pleat Count Results (48 Pleats Each) 15:53 – Final Verdict: Are Amazon Filters Genuine?
