I always use the OEM Honda oil Filter.
Pros: OEM quality
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
I do it myself in the driveway for half of what the dealership quoted. Takes about 30 minutes, it's really easy on my powerstroke as the drain plug and filter are right next to each other.
Pros: easy to do, saves money
Vehicle:
Ford
Use Mann. They are cheap too. OE.
Pros: cheap, OE quality
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Use Mann filters, they are the best.
Pros: best quality
I would never buy a cheapie oil filter for any car, especially a European car. I have always insisted on OEM or Bosch parts for our VW’s.
Pros: OEM quality, reliable
Cons: cheap filters unreliable
Depends on year and where you are located. I would never buy a cheap one, since a Bosch is 10 euros, and I'm not willing to take any chances for 5 euros or less, which is the price difference with a ridex or something like that.
Pros: Bosch quality
Cons: cheap filters unreliable
Right now I have Red Line 5w30 and a wix filter due to what I’ve read on forums
Just had an amsoil filter fail at the gasket. The inner diameter was too small causing a crease in the gasket that leaked after 4 months use. Nearly ran me dry.
Cons: gasket leak, filter failure
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
First and only time i tried a k&n filter the bypass valve did not open and oil sprayed everywhere .I Will never try one again.
Cons: bypass valve failure, oil spray
