Oil filter Mahle or Wix

Use Wix xp filters, they are metal with a rubber gasket that doesn't come off

Wix all the way…has superior filtration vs all others, as tested by Project Farm on youtube

I use Mobil 1 with either a Wix or Mobil 1 filter.

At the recommendation of several others, I put a Wix in mine when I bought my Fit last year.

I own a f30 (330d) and have done my own oil changes for the past 9 years and change oil every 7k miles. I started out using 0w-20 oil till around 60k mileage. I then switched to 5w30 from 60k mileage for engine longevity. I’ve always used Mahle filters on my car. Mann and Bosch are good alternatives to use too. As my F30 sits quite low I have always jacked it off the ground so I can get access to the sump plug. Also remember to change the washer from the sump plug during every oil change.

Both Wix and Purolator are made by the same company, Mann & Hummel so the top of the line filters (Purolator Boss & Wix XP) are about identical. IDK about the 20k mile one, haven't touched it yet but it should be on par or better than the Boss.

You can't go wrong with either as they are some of my favorite filters on the market due to how clean the internal construction & how solid the material quality is. The highest end Frams are fine to run but still not as good as Wix or Purolator, and nothing below Frams highest line is worth running imo.

Wix everything. It's the only filter I use in mine and customer cars. I've probably used 3,000 + over the last 20 years

I've had no issue with the WIX filters for my last two oil changes

Delco and fram filters are no different. Wix is 100% way better and a lot less when you have a commercial account

Wanna see what a Wix filter looks like after less than 10k and 1 year of driving. Notice how the paper media pulled away from the rubber support. Notice that the filter has been sucked in.
