Oil filter K&N or MOTUL

Brand is personal preference tbh.. ive seen good and bad reviews with royal purple but no evidence that its actually bad. My main 2 that i use are Delo 15W-40 Full Synthetic Heavy Duty Turbo Diesel oil and when thats sold out i run Mobil 1 Full Synthetic 15w-40. And i put a K&N oil filter every time, changing oil at 5K miles and ive had no issues using it as a daily and autocross car. Backroads racing on the weekends, roadtrips, some drifting. Got 271K miles on it and no motor issues.

Have done many oil changes on both my Tellurides, and used K&N every-time, better quality than OEM.

Motul 8100 X-Clean EFE 5w30 w/ black Subaru OEM filter

My ‘11 CR-V AWD is sitting pretty at 285,000 miles and I’ve been using a combination of Valvoline MaxLife Engine Oil High Mileage Full Synthetic and K&N High Performance Oil Filter for the last 100k miles.

Valvoline High Mileage w/ K&N Gold filter, I've had no problems, and it runs smooth

Also, use the best filter you can afford and that means K&N (I hate that VW Mann 3D world junk).

What I usually order with K&n performance oil filter.

Changed my '06 BPY oil today, noticed large copper flakes in the oil filter and at the bottom of the pan when draining oil.

The filter I was running was a K&N. I removed the old filter and it had totally collapsed. The oil light would come on at every stop in the first 10-15 minutes of driving. Especially in cold weather. After changing the old K&N filter that was in horrible condition, I have had no issues whatsoever.

Most cars in my house get cheap bulk ordered filters off RockAuto. Except the STI, that one has been getting K&N and soon switching to Wix. I’d never allow the oem trash cardboard filter near my car.
