For filters I have never been done wrong by wix. Price is right and the quality is there. I converted my hilux to use wix 51515 filters because I was sick of ordering them from australia for $40 each, and definitely not buying the $80 one I could get locally. Now my filters cost me like $7. Will pay for the cost of the conversion in a couple years of oil changes.
Always used Bosch Premium once warranty was up. Anyway, tech said Bosch is his first choice for a good substitute and probably even better than Honda. I tend to agree.
A good filter is $15 (I use Wix XP) and I get my full synthetic oil at Costco whenever it goes on sale for $3/qt.
I don't know about a lot of different oil filter manufacturers but a wix and Napa are the same and a good quality filter. Wix makes a lot of different brands and I think they are the best.
I use a wix filter that has a filter key that attaches to my ratchet. Never get oiled up all!
I bought a 12 pack of wix for my 8th gen, never had a problem and I’ve used 11 of them so far.
Im a wix guy personally and have read good things about them in the past. Ive subjected my car to a couple dozen track events with temps exceeding 280 degrees and have Blackstone Lab reports that have come back fine and "within spec" for their analysis. This is enough for me to keep using them.
I have been using exclusively Wix filters on my oil changes for a couple years. I have had my oil analyzed multiple times on multiple engines, always a clean report. I'll stick with Wix.
So every couple of years I do a mass oil filter purchase for my evo. I've always bought Wix oil filters, and every single time I order from Rockauto, they come in a black box, with an original black Wix body. Well this time, I just got some white NAPA ProSelect filters instead of actual Wix ones. From my research the Proselect is not on the same level as the Wix filters.
bosch will do for a fester, for the more high performance or up market stuff i use mann or dealer and they aren’t that much more, i just had a 340 gt bmw in that ran the camshafts out of the head after 6k on factors oil and filter, the filter collapsed and sent paper fluff all round the engine so had to replace the cylinder head.
