The correct oil filter for a 2017 Honda Accord depends on which engine your car uses. If you have the 1.5-liter turbo, use the Honda Genuine oil filter for that engine; if you have the 2.0-liter turbo, use the filter specified for that engine. Always verify with your vehicle’s VIN or owner’s manual to be sure.
Identify your engine and confirm the right filter
To ensure you order the correct filter the first time, determine whether your Accord uses the 1.5L turbo or the 2.0L turbo engine. The VIN and engine badge will help you confirm the exact specification. This step prevents ordering the wrong part when shopping for replacements.

Verification and fitment by VIN
To avoid any confusion, check your vehicle identification number (VIN) and consult Honda’s official parts catalog or your dealer. The VIN can be found on the driver’s door jamb plate or the vehicle’s registration documents, and it will help you pull the exact factory-recommended filter for your specific car.
Maintenance tips for replacement
When replacing the oil filter, also replace the drain plug seal, use the recommended oil viscosity in your owner’s manual (commonly 0W-20 for many 1.5L and 2.0L Hondas), and ensure you torque the drain plug to the manufacturer’s specification. Dispose of used oil and filters responsibly at an appropriate recycling facility.
Where to buy
Official Honda parts distributors, authorized dealers, and reputable automotive retailers carry the OEM filter and compatible aftermarket options. If you’re unsure, ask a professional mechanic or contact a local Honda service department with your VIN ready.
