Oil filter AMSOIL or OEM Subaru

AMSOIL Oil filter

I was skeptical, but I started using it and their best filter in my '98 Durango 5.9 (gas). I ran it for the full 25 K(+) and sent an oil sample out to a 3rd party "Analysts, Inc." for a full analysis - including spectrographic. Basically, their recommendation was that the oil showed minimal contamination, acceptable viscosity, and was still OK for continued use and to re-sample at next interval.

Pros: minimal contamination, acceptable viscosity
Vehicle: Dodge Durango
Mileage: 25000 km

AMSOIL Oil filter

I use amsoil, pricy but the filter is what's really worth it and before I changed my valve seals I burnt quite a bit less, it went from a quart every 800-1k miles to a quarter quart in that same time frame.

Pros: filter is worth it
Cons: pricy

OEM Subaru Oil filter

Also get a good Putolator or Subaru brand oil filter that is rated for the higher Subaru oil pressure so that it is filtering more often and not blowing open the internal filter bypass because Clean oil will make the engine last longer.

Pros: clean oil, engine longer
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 5000 km

AMSOIL Oil filter

I have used the Amsoil Premium diesel oil and filters for the last decade, changing them once a year, and my truck is doing just fine.

Pros: tremendous cost savings

AMSOIL Oil filter

I have experience with the long drain intervals from Amsoil. I have 2 dodge vehicles with 3.6L engines both at around 130,000 km and I use the signature series 5w20 with Amsoil filter and I go about 18,000 km before I change the oil.

Pros: long drain intervals
Vehicle: Dodge
Mileage: 130000 km
