vs
Oil filter K&N or OEM FORD
Plus I've been told its a better filter typically from the dealer.
Pros: better filter
Vehicle:
Ford Fusion
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.
Vehicle:
Honda
Mileage: 285000 km
Valvoline High Mileage w/ K&N Gold filter, I've had no problems, and it runs smooth
Pros: no problems, runs smooth
My XJ channels its ww2 roots with Ford diesel oil and an FL-1A filter.
Part number: FL-1A
Also, use the best filter you can afford and that means K&N (I hate that VW Mann 3D world junk).
Pros: best filter
Cons: VW Mann 3D world junk
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
What I usually order with K&n performance oil filter.
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
I also noticed it seems like it made more noise with a K&N oil filter vs Mobil 1 filter.
Pros: quieter with Mobil 1
Cons: more noise with K&N
The filter I was running was a K&N. I removed the old filter and it had totally collapsed. The oil light would come on at every stop in the first 10-15 minutes of driving. Especially in cold weather. After changing the old K&N filter that was in horrible condition, I have had no issues whatsoever.
Cons: filter totally collapsed, caused oil light
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 16000 km
Most cars in my house get cheap bulk ordered filters off RockAuto. Except the STI, that one has been getting K&N and soon switching to Wix. I’d never allow the oem trash cardboard filter near my car.
Pros: switching to Wix
Cons: oem trash cardboard filter
Vehicle:
Subaru
