I did Castrol Edge Euro Car 5W-40 with a Hengst oil filter, but if you want to spend a little extra most people recommend LiquidMoly
Pros: good engine protection

My personal recommendation is a Ford OEM filter, 10qt Pennz Ultimate Platinum 5w30, and one bottle of Ceratec to help with the infamous "Coyote tick". Many will argue for Ceratec, many will argue against. All I know is my car is quieter with than without.
Pros: quieter engine
Been running Pennzoil Ultra and Ford OEM filter on my PP1 and now my Mach 1 for 5 years. Never had a single issue, even with some track days and AutoX.
Pros: no issues, reliable performance
You can find Mobil 1 esp at most local car parts stores and you won’t have to ship. 0w30 or 5w30, double check it’s VW 507.00 on the back. I think my advanced auto parts down the street had the correct Mann oil filter in stock too.
Pros: easy to find, no shipping
Vehicle:
Audi A3
Oil changes are simple, 7 quarts of Mobil 1 ESP X2 oil, quality filter - I like Wix.
Pros: simple oil changes
I use Pennzoil Platinum and Fram Ultra filters.
YES! My 2012 Skyactiv is at 233K miles, and has always had the Mazda Moly 0W-20 (with the exception where I was able to get the Idemitsu version, which is the same stuff, but without Mazda's markup. Sucks that it isn't available anymore. ) and I'm not about to chance running a different oil.
Always run a Mazda filter too. The quality seems better than most.
Pros: high quality
Cons: expensive
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Mileage: 233000 km
Decades ago some of em would collapse and send crap into your oil pan and worse. So I was told anyway; left a bad taste in a lot of older mechanics mouths.
These days they are fine.
Pros: fine these days
Cons: collapse, send crap
Normal pricing but don\u2019t go to the quickie lubes. Their oil filters are absolute shit
Cons: shit oil filters
Vehicle:
BMW
Major repairs: rebuilt the engine (4.7L) at 133K because the oil filter blew off at speed, and spun a bearing.
Cons: oil filter blew off, engine damage
Vehicle:
Jeep Grand Cherokee
Mileage: 214032 km
