Oil filter K&N or MOTUL
I've used AMSOIL Signature in my recent change in my 3.8 with a K&N Filter. I gotta say it's pretty damn good. Engine cranks right up and feels so much more smoother.
Pros: engine cranks right up, smoother
Vehicle:
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
Personally i use these:
Oil filter is a 204-1 so for £8 it's worth buying K&N
And as for oil i use Shell Ultra 4T 10W40 (Fully synthetic). I use this in all my bikes as i find it really enduring and reasonably priced if you know where to look.
Pros: enduring, reasonably priced
Part number: 204-1
Motul 8100 5w40 & oem filter over anything
Vehicle:
Subaru
I go for K&N. No complaints. Also, they have that nut on the end, so you can wrench it off.
Pros: no complaints
I've been running Castrol 5w40 in my cars for years. Started in my '99 Beetle 2.0 and now my 1.8T GTI. I use the K&N filter but I get the one for the Passat since its larger.
Pros: larger filter, good performance
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Been doing it myself with full synthetic and k&n performance filters every 3k ever since.
Pros: full synthetic, performance filters
Vehicle:
Nissan
Mileage: 3000 km
K&N filters are beefier, my old VRs filters used to come out looking like that. The only filter that would withstand the vr and keep its shape was the k & n
Pros: beefier, keeps its shape
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I'm still running my K&N oil filter, though I've got a Mahle that I ordered along with the ABA pump.
Mine was my oil filter! I used a k&n because they come with a oil change reminder sticker. Leaked like mad.
Pros: oil change reminder sticker
Cons: leaked like mad
Vehicle:
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
K&N filter is not as good as OE and just about expensive.
Cons: not as good as OE, expensive
Vehicle:
Mazda
