Reviews of Motorcraft oil filter

Penzoil ultra platinum with a Motorcraft oil filter.

My feeling is pick any reputable fully synthetic oil and stick to it. Make sure to change more sooner than later.

But my feeling is the filter makes all the difference some of those OE spec aftermarket are not as much OE spec. The Motorcraft filter has specific bypass valves that allow optimal oil pressure when you need it. This is crucial for a healthy 5.0 coyote motor.

For 7 years i’ve religiously used motorcraft 5w-30 and motorcraft oil filters in my ‘97 crown vic lx and it’s been great

I maintain 4 6.7s, in f350 and f450. Motorcraft filters and full synthetic 5w40 are my choice. I send Blackstone oil samples periodically and change them at 8k. So far, Blackstone keeps telling me I can let the oil go longer.

Motorcraft oil filters are also known for being of great quality.

Purolator was the producer of our filters last time I checked. Motorcraft filters are surprisingly good considering how cheap they are. The bypass setup, filter media, housing and overall quality are higher than what you’d get at a fast lube place.

Motorcraft filters are made by Purolator. It's been my experience that Motorcraft filters work perfectly fine. I used Motorcraft oil as well until I switched to full synthetic.

$5 Motorcraft oil filter from Rock Auto

The motorcraft filters I've seen for fords have the pressure relief at the end that screws on, top in most cases. Most others have it at the bottom. Since crud settles to the bottom if that relief opens with the relief at the bottom its gonna send that crud into the engine.

For my 2010 3.0L V6 Fusion I loaded up on the Havoline Pro-DS full synthetic 6quart eco boxes in the 0w20, 5w20, and 5w30 viscosities and always run a Motorcraft FL-500S filter.

My 315k mile powerstroke goes 7500 with no noticeable wear with motorcraft filters
