The service includes a filter matched to the engine's specification, a new drain plug gasket or washer where the engine uses one, and a leak check after the engine has been run.

What an oil filter replacement on a 2024 Honda Ridgeline involves
An oil filter replacement for the 2024 Honda Ridgeline begins with fitting a filter matched to the engine's specification. The filter is selected for the 3.5 L V6 engine actually installed in the vehicle, rather than treated as a universal component. During the service, the drain plug gasket or washer is renewed where this engine uses one. That sealing piece supports a proper seal when the drain plug is reinstalled.
After the oil and filter work is complete, the engine is run and the filter seal is checked for leaks. This final check matters because oil can escape from a seal that is damaged, incorrectly seated, or not tightened correctly. The service is designed to replace the filter alongside the oil so the fresh oil is working with a clean filtration element. When your 2024 Honda Ridgeline is due for this maintenance, schedule service with Nalley Honda.
Why the filter matters on a 2024 Honda Ridgeline
The 2024 Honda Ridgeline uses a 3,471 cc, 3.5 L V6 engine. As engine oil circulates, it carries debris away from moving components, and the oil filter holds that debris instead of allowing it to continue through the lubrication system. The filter is therefore part of the oil service, not an optional add-on to fresh oil.
As the filter loads with captured material, its bypass valve opens. That does not necessarily stop the engine from getting oil; it means the engine can receive oil that is no longer being filtered. In other words, a loaded filter does not stop oil flow, but it stops filtered oil flow in a quiet way. Replacing the filter with the oil prevents the filtration element from being stretched across two changes. For the 2024 Honda Ridgeline, the matching 2023 and 2025 model schedules state filter replacement every 20,000 miles.

What happens if the oil filter on a 2024 Honda Ridgeline is not replaced?A loaded filter can open its bypass valve, allowing oil to circulate without being filtered.
The engine can still receive oil, so the issue may develop quietly rather than stopping the vehicle immediately.

Can the oil be changed on a 2024 Honda Ridgeline without changing the filter?The oil can be changed separately, but the filter is intended to be replaced alongside the oil service.
