Frequently Asked Questions

6 common questions answered

Is the oil filter replaced every time a 2020 Honda Passport has its oil changed?The oil filter is replaced with the oil when the Passport receives this oil and filter service.

The filter captures debris carried by the oil, and replacing both keeps fresh oil moving through a fresh filter. The manufacturer’s maintenance schedule lists oil filter replacement every 20,000 miles. Service history and the manufacturer’s schedule help determine the appropriate maintenance timing.

  • Filter matched to the 3.5-liter V6
  • New drain plug gasket or washer where applicable
  • Leak check after the engine runs
What is included in an oil filter replacement on a 2020 Honda Passport?The service includes an engine-matched filter, a new drain plug gasket or washer where applicable, and a leak check after operation.

The filter is selected for the engine actually fitted in the Passport. After installation and engine operation, the filter seal is checked for leaks. Booking also replaces the filter alongside the oil rather than carrying an old filter into another oil change.

  • Filter matched to the engine
  • Renewed drain plug sealing component where used
  • Post-service filter-seal inspection
What happens if the oil filter on a 2020 Honda Passport is not replaced?A loaded filter can open its bypass valve, allowing oil to circulate without being filtered.

The engine can still receive oil, but it may no longer receive oil cleaned by the filter. The filter holds debris picked up during circulation, so extending it across oil changes reduces filtration as it loads. The manufacturer’s maintenance schedule and the vehicle’s service history should guide replacement timing.

  • Debris remains in the lubrication system
  • The bypass valve may allow unfiltered oil flow
  • An oil-pressure warning or noisier engine can signal concern
Does a 2020 Honda Passport need a specific oil filter?Yes, the filter is matched to the Passport’s 3.5-liter, 3,471 cc six-cylinder engine, and filters are not interchangeable across engines.

Matching the filter to the engine helps ensure the component suits the engine’s lubrication system. The service does not rely on treating every vehicle filter as interchangeable. Coggin Honda St. Augustine replaces the filter with one matched to the engine actually fitted.

  • 3.5-liter engine displacement
  • 3,471 cc engine displacement
  • Six-cylinder V6 engine layout
Can the oil be changed on a 2020 Honda Passport without changing the filter?Oil can be changed separately, but this service replaces the filter alongside the oil.

The filter collects debris as oil circulates, and a loaded filter can open its bypass valve so oil flows unfiltered. Replacing the filter with the oil gives the fresh lubricant a clean filtration path. The manufacturer’s maintenance schedule lists oil filter replacement every 20,000 miles.

  • Fresh oil paired with a fresh filter
  • Filter seal checked after the engine runs
  • Drain plug gasket or washer renewed where applicable
