Rating 5.0

I use 5W-30 Mobil 1 synthetic and the 10,000 mile Mobil1 filter from Walmart. I bought my 2009 TSX nearly 4 years ago with 113,000. It now has 178,950. I'm lucky it doesn't burn any oil, I never have to add oil between changes.

Pros: doesn't burn any oil
Vehicle: Acura TSX

Mobil Oil filter

Every third oil change use Mobil one oil filter. Ideally their high mileage one. It’s more restrictive. It can and will catch metal particles

Pros: catches metal particles, more restrictive

K&N Oil filter

I use the K&N 170 on my 1999 883C, have for years. Not sure why Amazon is saying "not for your model", I've literally been using it for the last 16 years and 70,000 miles, and have ordered 6 of them from Amazon over that time period.

Pros: reliable, long lasting
Mileage: 70000 km
Part number: 170

Mobil Oil filter

I have switched back and forth between Toyota 0W-16 with a Toyota oil filter and Mobil 1 0W-16 with a Mobil 1 oil filter. I have noticed no difference in performance, fuel mileage or metal wear between the two oils.

Pros: no difference in performance
Cons: less molybdenum
Mileage: 10000 km

K&N is probably the most annoying with the rounded off nut they expect you to use to get the filter off. I'll never buy one of those again.

Cons: annoying removal, rounded nut

K&N oil filters on the other hand, are like the thread count myth for bedsheets. You are paying a shitton more for 480 Egyptian cotton you'll throw out in 3000 mi.

Cons: expensive, short lifespan
