I use Amsoil Signature Series and a Wix Filter.
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!
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.
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.
I have used Wix filters. Wasn't the biggest fan of the plastic end caps on the filter, but aside from that they worked just fine.
The car takes a different oil filter (wix 57170). The filter housing has a center structure coming out of it that slides in the bottom of the filter (to keep it in place?) and the new filter doesnt have that. I sat there with a dremel for 2 hours and made the new filter fit. Success, but its still leaking the same amount of oil.
