Fram’s most common oil filter numbers for a 2008 Honda Accord are PH9688 (and PH9688A) for the 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, and PH9689 (and PH9689A) for the 3.0-liter V6. Always verify the exact fit with Fram’s online filter finder to match your specific vehicle.
The 2008 Accord came with two engine options, which means Fram lists different compatible filter numbers depending on which engine your car has. This article breaks down the two engine scenarios and the Fram numbers most often cited for each, while noting that availability can vary by retailer and region.
Four-cylinder 2.4L engine
For the 2.4L four-cylinder version of the 2008 Accord, Fram commonly lists a pair of compatible filter numbers in its catalogs and retailer listings.
- PH9688
- PH9688A
These numbers are widely referenced for the 2.4L Accord in many online listings and Fram’s own lookup tools. Because part availability can vary, always confirm with Fram’s filter finder or a trusted retailer before purchase.
V6 3.0L engine
For the 3.0L V6 version of the 2008 Accord, Fram typically shows a distinct set of compatible filters.
- PH9689
- PH9689A
As with the four-cylinder version, actual availability may differ by market or retailer. Use Fram’s official filter finder to confirm the exact match for your VIN and production date.
How to verify the right Fram oil filter
To make sure you buy the correct Fram filter, use Fram’s online lookup tool: enter your vehicle year, make, and model (and, if available, engine type). You can also compare the physical dimensions and thread type of the old filter to the Fram option. Honda engines commonly use a standard filter thread and mounting pattern, but double-checking prevents mistakes.
If you don’t have web access, ask your auto parts retailer to cross-check the Fram numbers against your Accord’s engine and year, or bring the old filter to the store for side-by-side comparison.
Summary
The right Fram oil filter number for a 2008 Honda Accord depends on the engine: PH9688/PH9688A for the 2.4L four-cylinder and PH9689/PH9689A for the 3.0L V6. Always verify with Fram’s filter finder or a trusted retailer to ensure an exact match for your VIN and production date.
