Oil filter LIQUI MOLY or OEM Volkswagen

LIQUI MOLY Oil filter

I used Liquimoly 5w-30 when I was NA, and still use liquimoly 5w-50 since boost. A little pricey ($120) for 10qts but worth it. Oil filter, just a ford performance filter. Pretty much any auto store will have them or a comparable brand in stock. When I was NA I’d do oil changes every 3k miles or sooner depending on how hard I drove it. Now with boost the max I go is 2k miles. Normally 1k-1.5k since I drive it hard and run e85.

Pros: worth the price
Cons: pricey

LIQUI MOLY Oil filter

I was using Kirkland synthetic before for topping off and other American oils for oil changes I’m sure, but then I went to a euro auto shop and they switched out for a German filter and oil, LIQUI MOLY, and I got a significant increase in mileage.

Pros: significant increase in mileage
Vehicle: Volkswagen

LIQUI MOLY Oil filter

Honda OEM filter (Honda used Tokyo Roki oil filters for my bike ????) I used to buy Motul 7100 4T, however the price on that recently SKYROCKETED… it’s almost 80$cad before taxes for 4L (60$ for 1.05669Gal for you freedom folks).I refuse to pay that much for oil, so I now I buy Liqui-Moly Street 4T. And that’s basically the same price that the Motul USED to cost. 50$ (35 eagles, or whatever) I am aware that Motul 7100 has esters added to it, which Liqui-Moly Street does not, and that technically Motul 7100 is a better oil. But it’s not double the price better… I was willing to pay 60$cad, but not 80$cad lol.If I can find Bel-Ray EXP (another ester blend) at the shop, I’ll buy that too :P but Liqui-Moly seems to be much easier to find.

Pros: same price as Motul, easy to find
Cons: price increase, no esters
Vehicle: Honda

OEM Volkswagen Oil filter

I just changed the oil on my TDI at 15,000 miles and when I pulled the engine cover it looked factory fresh under the cover. Meaning there was no evidence that the dealer even made an attempt to change the cartridge filter. I was very, very careful not to spill oil on the engine components but still managed to get oil on the white mesh heat shield next to the filter housing. When I removed the cartridge filter it looked extremely dirty and gunky.

Cons: filter extremely dirty
Mileage: 15000 km
