Oil filter Bosch or Wix
Mobil 1 0w/20 and Wix filters from rockauto. Apparently the Wix’s are the only filters with the correct drainback valve. So I’ve heard. They’re cheap and work well so I use them.
2018 Honda Fit EX. Using 0W16 Amsoil, oil filter my car likes is WIX 57356XP Oil Filter. Transmission fluid I use Amsoil CVT. All working fine. Been using it for like almost 2 years.
Wix oil filter and crush washers from Amazon. Though I have gotten crush washers from the dealer. Napa Gold oil filters are Wix, which are arguably among the best oil filters, so I've gotten those oil filters too.
Oil from Walmart. Any 0W-20 synthetic is fine, even the Supertech, though I've used Mobil One. I need a long funnel in my 2nd generation Fit because of where the oil cap is.
I've been using Castrol high mileage 5w-30 lately with Bosch oil filters. I suspect I don't actually have the one I wanted, just the Bosch model fits my V. I think their premium line is supposed to be similar to the Filtech design. I added the appropriate amount of Marvel Mystery Oil to the pan about 100 miles ago. I haven't been calculating mpg, but notice the b20 engine runs smoother.
I use Mobil one and a Bosch filter on my 18 turbo. It's the same thing I use on every car I've ever owned.
I tried several different combinations of filter and oil on a 4.0 with 180k. Decided to give T6 and a WixHD filter and everything has been amazing since. Almost all of the little issues seem to have disappeared since I switched.
I placed an order for a toolset, oil, oil filter, drain plug, and filter wrench.
I actually use a Carquest blue-line filter which is literally a rebadged WIX. Even the part numbers match.
Any oil filter made for the car is fine, I bought Bosch P7078 just because it's available and a brand that I recognize.
One lesson I learned when buying oil filters for the VR6 is to NOT buy a Bosch filter. Why? They are about $10 more, and when you pull it out of that pretty little Bosch box and look at the filter, it's a Hengst.
