Lol - there is a torque spec on the factory oil caps now 32mm socket @ 25Nm is all it needs. And yes I use my torque wrench every time on it I Only use Mann or OEM filters from the dealership. Not had a collapse.
I buy two 5L jugs and a MANN filter from FCP euro and use their lifetime warranty.
I just go to Walmart or Costco and pick up 5W30 and a filter on ebay or amazon (mann). As long as it's LL01 approved oil, it'll treat your engine right.
Pennzoil Platinum Synthetic 0W20 with a Fram Ultra Synthetic oil filter. Every car I've owned gets this (weight varies by engine requirements). Runs better and longer than M1EP, Castrol GTX, Valvoline MaxLife, and it's cheaper than Royal Purple and still can be bought at Walmart.
IMO, best bang for your buck is Fram XG6607.
For the oil filter mahle Mann or will do.
Fram… even used the orange can of death on my old Toyotas without issues.
Dont use a fram filter.... That will help a TON. There is a reason almost nobody uses Fram except walmart. I wouldnt trust the base fram past 3k period
changed my oil filter that apparently collapsed with a Mann brand and it definitely worked after a month later with no light the darn oil light came back I just redid my filter and oil but it came back getting on the freeway
When I seat this fram titanium filter in the oil filter housing it doesn’t make that audible click when you push it down and fit snug. It is loose in the oil filter housing and moves around.
