Default Oil Filter Socket / Wrench

What size oil filter socket does the S2000 filter require? I just came back from Autozone and while there I tried all the sizes for oil sockets they had and none fit. I ended up picking up the rubber wrenches instead but still would like one that fits perfectly. Preferably one I can order online.

Thanks.

Don't know the size but the Honda parts dept sells the oil filer wrench that fits on the end of your oil filter which then fits on a socket wrench. Give your local Honda dealer a call.

Thanks for the input, I'll checkout the other places.

Does anyone happen to know the size?

I like a strap wrench, personally. It fits on all sorts of filters, and it's nice and cheap. Can't use it with a torque wrench, but most torque wrenches aren't very accurate at such low torque levels anyway. The "7/8 of a full turn" method is more reliable, and the strap wrench works just fine for that.

I assume you're referring to the wrench for the Honda 15400-PCX-004 filter. I also got my wrench at Pep Boys. The only number I can find on it is on the inside near the 3/8 square wrench hole. It is: A257.

I took the filter in with me and kept trying them until I found one that fit.

What's wrong with your

No wonder the vette guys think we're sissies "What filter wrench do you use?" "It's too tight." "My hand hurts."

hehe
JK!
