I’ve been using K&N air and oil filters in mine for ten years. I run nothing else and will always run K&N. I’m happy with mine. Oil filter number HP1008. I would recommend. The one inch nut on top is often very helpful getting the filter out. I also run K&N oil and air filters in every vehicle I’ve ever owned. There is a noticeable difference in throttle response for the air filter, but I’ve never seen a difference good or bad in the oil filters.
No complaints from my 16 STI running Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and K&N filter.
I only use mobil1 high mileage and mobil1 filters for my 99
Brand is personal preference tbh.. ive seen good and bad reviews with royal purple but no evidence that its actually bad. My main 2 that i use are Delo 15W-40 Full Synthetic Heavy Duty Turbo Diesel oil and when thats sold out i run Mobil 1 Full Synthetic 15w-40. And i put a K&N oil filter every time, changing oil at 5K miles and ive had no issues using it as a daily and autocross car. Backroads racing on the weekends, roadtrips, some drifting. Got 271K miles on it and no motor issues.
I always use Mobil 1 oil filters for my Miata. Does the job well. You can use the M110A filter instead of the M108 (stock size Mobil 1 oil filter). The M110A is larger than the stock size which means you'll have a larger filter media surface area, slightly larger oil volume and flow, and it's easier to reach whenever you change the filter. Fits with zero issues and costs the same as the smaller stock size too.
Have done many oil changes on both my Tellurides, and used K&N every-time, better quality than OEM.
+1 on Mobil 1 oil and for the filter Bosch or Mobil 1 extended performance filter (both are about the same cost as OEM, but have better filtering)
My ‘11 CR-V AWD is sitting pretty at 285,000 miles and I’ve been using a combination of Valvoline MaxLife Engine Oil High Mileage Full Synthetic and K&N High Performance Oil Filter for the last 100k miles.
Valvoline High Mileage w/ K&N Gold filter, I've had no problems, and it runs smooth
I wanted to give you guys a little insight on my recent discovery. I have always changed my oil @ 10K miles, using mainly pentosin and Hengst or mann filters. On occasion when I don't have time to wait for oil to ship to me, I've used German Castrol and autozone filters (either STP, Fram or Mobil 1). The picture below is what my mobil 1 oil filter looked like after 9K miles w/ German Castrol. Mind you I have NEVER had a Hengst/Mann/Fram/STP look like this when changing my oil. Another tid bit of info, My oil was much blacker this oil change than it has ever been.
