I have nothing to say about this other than DO NOT USE K&N FILTERS or any other filter with a hex nut on the end to aid removal. There have been at least four or five cases reported on this forum of them failing. It's ugly when they do and oil trickles out all over the engine. Luckily no-one has been killed or hurt as a result.
Having said that, I suspect it was a dodgy batch of filters and the problem is unlikely to recur, but having seen it happen, I'll have none of them just in case.
I generally use more than one filter a year and I can't see any reason not to buy the Honda one.
