vs
Oil filter VALVOLINE or OEM FORD
I use Valvoline advanced full synthetic or quaker state full synthetic, and those oils seem to hold up very well (ive tried plenty of different brands) and you can buy it anywhere for top off oil. I have been interested in using liquimoly though. For filters, i use k&n, wix, or the nissan oem.
Pros: holds up well, easy to buy
My personal recommendation is a Ford OEM filter, 10qt Pennz Ultimate Platinum 5w30, and one bottle of Ceratec to help with the infamous "Coyote tick". Many will argue for Ceratec, many will argue against. All I know is my car is quieter with than without.
Pros: quieter engine
Been running Pennzoil Ultra and Ford OEM filter on my PP1 and now my Mach 1 for 5 years. Never had a single issue, even with some track days and AutoX.
Pros: no issues, reliable performance
I added one to my Ford Excursion years ago. Loved having it. Turn the key to on, wait for the oil pressure gauge to register, crank.
Pros: loved having it
Vehicle:
Ford Excursion
Go on Groupon and look for shops in your area. I get coupons for Valvoline and they’ve always been good to me. I save a good bit as well!
Pros: good service, cheap price
Vehicle:
Lexus
I just put Valvoline full synthetic high mileage 5w-20 with a motorcraft filter in my 2011, and it runs so smooth now. I used to have some noise on startup but nothing now.
Pros: runs smooth, no startup noise
Cons: startup noise before
$0 because e-Tron however, on the A5 2.0T; I’m paying $50 for oil (Valvoline full synth) and $16 for the oil filter…but I own all the tools and use my employee discount.
Pros: full synth
Vehicle:
Audi A5
when I did the first oil change on my car I removed an aftermarket Filter. The OEM filter was about 1/3 larger, and weighed the same as the aftermarket filter full of oil. Just makes me wonder how much more there is inside the OEM filter.
Pros: larger filter
Cons: smaller aftermarket filter
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
I dont think valvoline is using a quality filter with the required oil.
Cons: not quality filter
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
The "valvoline" brand ones are pretty shit.
Cons: pretty shit
