Purolator and Wix filters are made by mann+hummel. Both are excellent filters. The Wix filter part# 57002 is made specifically for the 2.5 non turbo Skyactive engine because it does not have an anti drain back valve and same goes for oem. 0w20 only comes in synthetics so as long as you use what is recommended in the manual you can use your favorite oil. I will be doing 3-4K oci.
I use Amsoil Signature Series and a Wix Filter.
I also use an ACDelco filter (blasphemy, I know).
Wix xp filter
Motor sounds so much better already and oil psi stays between 58 and 62
Oem filter or wix WL10078. For oil pennzoil platinum or ultra platinum 5w30 (whichever is cheaper).
I used to strictly go OEM with the blue filters, but switched to WIX after watching this:No issues to report.. little more peace of mind
I use Wix oil filters because they're cheaper than the Kawi ones, and I've used the wix brand for the better part of a decade and had no issues with it on any of my vehicles.
Make sure you pair the oil with a high-quality filter. I prefer Wix.
It's an AC Delco PF2057 without a sticker on it. Completely fine filter overall.
the local gm dealer here uses the cheap delco filters and they always make my oil pressure drop 10psi
