Agree about the WIX filter, has better end caps on the filter vs the oem filter that you just press the oil line tube ends into it, not a great design imo.
Penzoil Ultra Platinum w/ Wix filter
That OEM filter is probably made at the same factory as an off the shelf filter from pretty much any automotive parts store. Hell, I'm doing an oil change tomorrow and I'm going to get a Wix 57002 and some Pennzoil.
Have always used WIX since new for both oil and fuel. No issues in my 2016.
I use wix they work fine
I tried to buy a filter, a bosch is a decent choice, but I wasn't able to find it, or I should import it for 100 sar ( which is expensive, most filter sold for 20 to 50 sar where I live - saudi arabia -)
I always use a Wix from O’Reillys and have never had an issue.
Make sure to change the drain plug crush washer if you don't do at the dealer and get good quality filters (Bosch, Mann)
I think WIX changed their manufacturing process because the one I bought appears to be plastic tack'd to the main housing now, and the ring breaks off when taking the old filter off.
The current Bosch 3323 oil filters are now made in Mexico and filter quality has decreased. I don't use the current Mexico made Bosch - I cut one open and it was a bit different than US made older ones.
