An OEM number identifies a manufacturer part, but a part number alone does not prove fit for every trim or build date. Supersessions can change the number over time.

Use the owner manual for your exact US-market model year, engine and equipment. A similar car can use a different service interval or part.
Next steps
Use the VIN-specific factory catalog, check front or rear position and equipment conditions, then compare the physical part. A store ASIN is a separate product identifier and needs its own fitment review.
- Identify the exact vehicle and current equipment.
- Read the manufacturer’s current service and parts information.
- Record what was checked or replaced, including date and mileage.
Find the vehicle-specific answer
Search sourced 2025 vehicles or check a maintenance schedule. Other years need their own manual; the 2025 data is not copied across years.
Common questions
Can I use this for every model year?
No. Verify the exact model-year manual and equipment.
Does a matching size prove a part fits?
No. The OEM catalog and the product manufacturer’s application information must agree.
