Oil filter OEM FORD or Mobil
I’ve got a 2013 3.5 eb and I change my oil every 4k miles. I do my own changes and use Mobil 1 full synthetic 5w30 with a Mobil 1 oil filter.
AcDelco filters and Mobil 1 filters are always good options to pick from. Don't get the 4 dollar Fram, please.
Mobil 1 filters are fine. I use them all the time in my E92 and I'm at 250k miles with ZERO engine issues. My car is used for commuting and has no modifications to it.
I chose to use Mobil1 0w16 oil and a Mobil1 oil filter ...made in Vietnam.
I used 30W Ford Super Premium Motor Oil and a Ford FL-1A filter, and I changed the oil and filter, and greased every component myself, including the U-joints every 3,000 miles where necessary. I asked my Uncle who manufactured this oil, and he didn\u2019t know, UNTIL one day, he received a case of oil Labeled as Exon Uniflo, one of the highest rated brands at the time. It was obvious, at least to me, that Ford Super Premium engine oil and Exon Uniflo were one and the same. I sold the car 5 years later with almost 98,000 miles on it, and absolutely no engine problems.
Last year i bought a car (Ford Focus) that had been garaged for 4 years.
Changed oil and filter as a precaution.
In my Hybrid, I use the OLM for recommended changes, except for the initial break-in oil/filter change. I did that one at 4k, which was about 2k of gasoline engine miles. OEM filter was tiny and I wanted to get it replaced.
Im using mobil 1 extended performance with the factory oil filter...so far so good.
1995 ford crown Vic, you have to turn the wheels to remove the filter.
I got denied an engine replacement from Hyundai/Kia in 2017 because of a Mobil1 oil filter in Canada and lost my appeal as well.
