K&N Oil Filter HP-1004 — 20,000-Mile Protection with Welded Wrench-Off Nut & High-Flow Pleated Media

K&N HP-1004 oil filter delivers heavy-duty filtration and up to 20,000 miles of service-ready protection with a welded wrench-off nut for fast removal.

Built for drivers who want a robust, easy-to-service oil filter that works with synthetic, conventional, and blended oils, the K&N HP-1004 combines high flow design, pleated synthetic-blend media, and a durable steel canister. It’s engineered to meet or exceed manufacturer-recommended service intervals across a wide range of passenger cars, crossovers, and light trucks, and includes the K&N 1-Year Limited Warranty.

How does the HP-1004 help maintain oil flow under real-world driving?

The HP-1004 is shaped for high flow rates so the engine receives a steady supply of oil even under load. Its pleated synthetic-blend media balances filtration efficiency with low restriction to protect moving parts while preserving oil circulation.

• High flow design reduces pressure drop at the filter.
• Pleated media captures contaminant particles without overly restricting oil.
• Suitable for synthetic, conventional, and blended oils for flexible maintenance.

What makes removal and installation easier for DIY and shop technicians?

K&N welded a one-inch hex nut into the canister so you can use a standard wrench or socket to remove the filter quickly, avoiding messy strap wrenches or filter pliers. The heavy‑duty canister resists crushing and deformation during removal and installation.

• Welded wrench-off nut for fast, tool-friendly removal.
• Rigid steel canister resists damage during service.
• Standard spin-on size fits many OEM filter locations for easy replacement.

Which vehicles and service intervals is the HP-1004 compatible with?

The HP-1004 covers a broad list of Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Toyota and several other models across many model years; it’s designed to meet the service intervals recommended by vehicle manufacturers. Always verify fitment against your vehicle year, make, and model before purchase.

• Fits many Hyundai, Kia, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Toyota, Genesis and select Ford/tractor models across 1988–2026 model years.
• Engineered to support recommended manufacturer intervals up to typical 20,000-mile maintenance cycles when paired with proper oil.
• Works with synthetic, conventional, and blended motor oils.

How does the HP-1004 balance filtration performance and durability?

Lab testing for capacity and burst strength ensures the filter can handle repeated service cycles while the pleated synthetic-blend media removes a high portion of harmful contaminants. The steel canister and precision assembly help prevent leaks and withstand the pressures and temperature changes found in daily driving.

• Laboratory tested for capacity and burst strength.
• Pleated media removes contaminants while maintaining flow.
• Durable construction resists deformation and potential leaks.

Who is this for? The K&N HP-1004 is a practical choice for motorists who perform their own maintenance or for technicians who value fast serviceability and reliable filtration. It’s especially well suited to owners of compatible Hyundai, Kia, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Toyota and related vehicles who want a long-lasting filter option that accepts all major motor oil types and simplifies removal with an integrated wrench-off nut.
