Oil filter AMSOIL or OEM Subaru

Wait until you change the filter on a Subaru where the filter is upside down.

I do this every time. I buy my amsoil and filter and the dealer only charges me labor

I'm running the amsoil remote filter, it will help with your oil quality.

Costco 5w30 synthetic with a genuine subaru filter every 3k miles lol

Oil Filters, I always use OEM Subaru oil filters, I just buy the bulk 12 pack from my dealer.

people are really set on the subaru filters as opposed to fram or others, and they’re really not very expensive so i just do it.

I installed an AMSoil satellite oil filter. I change it out every 15k and change my oil and primary oil filter at 30k.

I've tried a number of different filters from OEM, Purolator, Amsoil, and Prova. I will say this. When I used the Amsoil filter and did an oil change, the oil came out looking like it went in. So no, not all filter are created equal. I haven't done an oil change with the Prova yet. Not driving as much with WFH.

Not only is it fine, it’s widely considered the best option for the WRX. I have had multiple cars and always did my own oil changes. On my first oil change on the WRX I used my (at that time) tried and true Mobil 1 high performance oil filter and the seal blew and made a mess. Luckily I caught it before any damage was done. Since then I’ve exclusively used Subaru OEM oil filters and had zero issues.

I swapped in a new Subaru OEM oil filter on my 2016 MT. After a short 1.5 miles drive, thin smoke escaped from beneath the hood, and a pool of oil gathered. Oil was literally burbling up from beneath the oil filter and spilling out. I immediately turned off the engine. I will not be using anymore of the junk OEM oil filters.
