BMC Air Filter For Honda Civic 06>10 1.8 P (FB464/04)

BMC Air Filter for Honda Civic 1.8 Petrol (2006-2010) (FB464/04)

The BMC FB464/04 is a direct-fit performance air filter for the 8th Generation Honda Civic 1.8 petrol (R18A engine), MY2006-2010. Multi-layer oiled cotton gauze increases intake airflow over the OEM paper element while maintaining tight filtration tolerance for one of Honda’s most iconic petrol engines.

Vehicle Compatibility

• Honda Civic 8th Gen 1.8 Petrol (2006-2010) — R18A i-VTEC

Key Features

• High-flow design — engineered for greater intake airflow than the disposable paper filter.
• Cotton gauze construction — multi-layer oiled cotton, BMC’s signature filtration medium.
• Direct OEM replacement — fits the 8th Gen Civic airbox with no modification.
• Washable and reusable — clean with the BMC service kit and re-oil; lifetime of the vehicle in most cases.
• No remap needed — drop in and drive; the slight airflow increase is well within ECU adaptation range.

Specifications

Why a BMC Filter on the 8th Gen Civic

The 8th Generation Civic is now 15+ years old and many examples are still running strong on owners who care for them. Replacing the OEM paper filter at every service adds up — and on older cars, dealer-supplied filters can be expensive and inconsistent in supply. A BMC cotton-gauze filter is a one-time purchase that’s washable for the rest of the car’s life, and the slight airflow improvement complements the R18A’s i-VTEC characteristics in the upper rev range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this fit the Civic Hybrid or Type R?
A: No — FB464/04 is specific to the 1.8 petrol R18A engine. The Civic Hybrid (LDA-based) and Type R (K20Z) use different airboxes and BMC part numbers. Confirm your engine before ordering.

Q: Will it cause a check-engine light?
A: No. The OEM ECU’s MAF sensor reads actual airflow in real time and adapts; the small flow increase is well within tolerances and does not throw codes.

Q: How often does it need cleaning on a daily-driven Civic?
A: Inspect at every service. Clean and re-oil when visibly dirty — typically every 50,000 km in normal Indian conditions.
