Well I see you went stp which is not as good as OEM. I run amsoil filters and have no issue, I prefer amsoil to OEM because amsoil have tested at a 99 percent particles are filtered out.

Pros: 99 percent particles filtered
Cons: not as good as OEM
Vehicle: Toyota

With a good filter (Fram synthetic endurance, Purolator boss, Amsoil) and a modern high performance oil such as Amsoil signature and Pennzoil ultra platinum you are good for at least 17.5k with the Amsoil and 12.5k with the Pennzoil under 'severe' conditions.

Pros: good filter, high performance
Mileage: 17500 km

Every 4500-5000 miles with Amsoil Signature and Amsoil filter. Do it yourself, it\u2019s not hard and you can be assured no corners were cut. Don\u2019t go beyond 5000 miles. The 3.5L is really hard on oil. It\u2019s cheap insurance.

Pros: cheap insurance
Mileage: 8047 km

I only run Amsoil fluids and filters. Never had any issues and I track my 17' mostly. \n\nI dont use amsoil brake fluid though. Castrol SRF React is the best brake fluid for dry and wet boiling points. But its pricey

Pros: no issues, good for tracking
Cons: pricey

I'm currently using Mobil 1 ESP 0w-30 and an Amsoil filter. 2024 Rav4 Prime XSE with 44,000+ miles. Several used oil analyses flagged high fuel dilution so I want the thicker Euro oil in there and also change it early every 5,000 miles.

Cons: high fuel dilution
Vehicle: Toyota
Mileage: 44000 km

B5 Passat (and Audi A4, same gen), 1.8T.

Filter - a big-ass 1.5 liter spin-on - mounted at an angle, directly above the front subframe.

Remove from top, after relocating the coolant tank.

Strategically use absorbent mat (floor diaper) to contain the inevitable spill.

Pros: mounted at an angle
Cons: inevitable spill
