Oil filter Mobil or OEM Mazda

Usually AutoZone near me runs a deal: but 5 quarts of Mobile 1, get a discount on the Mobile 1 filter...

It's worked for over a decade.

I've had my truck nearly 30 years now and DIY'd DOZENS of oil changes. I've not once used an OEM filter. I use whatever's on sale, preferably K&N or Mobil 1, but often Fram or Purolator or whatever was on sale.

I can count on zero hands the number of times the brand of filter has affected my Taco.

Mazda recommends their oem filters on skyactive motors. Its because they dont have the flaps that keeps oil pressurized. Any wisdom says you dont need it but go ahead and buy them online as I paid $5 per.

if your car is stock, you don't have to worry too much about the oil and filter. i think last time i went with a mobile 1 filter and their extended performance oil but I have used other brands too. any OEM filter will be fine.

In terms of filter and oil, I have an NA and I personally like to buy the OE filters from Mazda and for oil I just use the oil recommended in the owners manual, id assume the ND uses different oil so I’d say just check that.

I prefer mobil 1 or wix filters, mobil 1 or castrol oil usually

Not that particular one, but I always used mobile 1 filters with all my vehicles, did with my ‘11 touring for the first couple changes, until we started to carry the OEM filter at store level

I use Mobil 1 oil filters purchased from Walmart. They’ve been good for me so far.

FZ is expensive, but not as expensive as a new transmission. Get the FZ.

Mobil 1 -20 000 miles extended performance – Disappointment from mobil 1. This is same exact filter as STP and I doubt it’s the very best filter here. Although not a garbage they should not misadvertise it for 20000 miles.
