Oil filter Wix or Motorcraft
I WAS using Subscribe and Save for Amazon Full Synthetic 5W-30 and Motorcraft FL-910S Filters, but they keep running out of stock
if you use the Ford/Motor raft FL400S, you can put all 6 qts in. Our engines benefit in some way or another from the bit of extra oil, iirc. Makes it easier than measuring out to get to the 5. whatever the stock filter size is
I only use WIX filters on my 04XT. They’re about the only ones that have the correct bypass pressure rating off the Amazon “shelf,” and their build quality is top-notch. I pay attention to things like this because I have an older turbocharged model with performance upgrades- she’s a bit picky haha.
Mobil 1 0w/20 and Wix filters from rockauto. Apparently the Wix’s are the only filters with the correct drainback valve. So I’ve heard. They’re cheap and work well so I use them.
2018 Honda Fit EX. Using 0W16 Amsoil, oil filter my car likes is WIX 57356XP Oil Filter. Transmission fluid I use Amsoil CVT. All working fine. Been using it for like almost 2 years.
Wix oil filter and crush washers from Amazon. Though I have gotten crush washers from the dealer. Napa Gold oil filters are Wix, which are arguably among the best oil filters, so I've gotten those oil filters too.
Oil from Walmart. Any 0W-20 synthetic is fine, even the Supertech, though I've used Mobil One. I need a long funnel in my 2nd generation Fit because of where the oil cap is.
I tried several different combinations of filter and oil on a 4.0 with 180k. Decided to give T6 and a WixHD filter and everything has been amazing since. Almost all of the little issues seem to have disappeared since I switched.
I actually use a Carquest blue-line filter which is literally a rebadged WIX. Even the part numbers match.
Went ahead and swapped out the factory fill oil after a few hundred miles. I heard they use a synthetic blend so it had to go. Went with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0W-20 and a Wix HD filter. Oil changes are so easy on these.
In that short time that engine oil made idle smoother, so highly recommend.
