I still use OEM-swap Fram brand filters for everything, since we always seem to have them on hand in Dad's shop. If you'd like a more permanent filter, K&N makes a set for the 9th gen Civic that's pretty nice.

Pros For K&N:
-Permanent, just blow them out with compressed air when they get dirty.
-Better airflow for performance

Cons for K&N:
- More airflow also means more dirt in the engine over time.

Pros for Fram:
-OEM Swap-in
-Better Filtration than K&N

Cons for Fram:
-Not Permanent
-Less Airflow


Cabin Filter #1: Fram CF10134 for Civic 2.4L Si
Cabin Filter #2: K&N VF2001 for Civic 2.4L Si

Air/Intake Filter #1: Fram CA10359 for Civic 2.4L Si
Air/Intake Filter #2: K&N 33-2473 for Civic 2.4L Si

I'm 90% sure these are the right part numbers-- but please double check them before you pick them up to make sure.

Hope this helps!

ok, I didn't see you listed both air filter and cabin filter. one point added.

@sunofwolf For a surprisingly civil answer, you have my respect. Good day, sir.

I like using the K&N cabin filter and drop in air filter. Another thing to add is be careful on buying oiled filters as they pollute the MAF and will require constant cleaning.

I have seen the fram is.

ok so I installed the fram cabin filter and when I turn the fan on there is a vibration. Does anyone know what could have happened?

 

[mySIck]

What kind of vibration and where? You could have a leaf in the fan.

Is the filter loose in the frame? Maybe the wrong filter?

Did you look in the fan to see if it had debris in it?

You can drop it out to look inside and clean it easier. I believe it is only 3 screws that hold it in.

I actually had a very similar issue the same week I got my car. I ended up taking it back in and they said that there was debris (leaves and shiz) in there between the fan and filter areas.

Did you ever figure out what was causing the vibrations?

Where would this be?
