Oil filter Motorcraft or Mobil

Mobil1 has been a 'gold standard' for a long time. I'd use it, along with a premium filter (Mobil1/etc.)

I use Mobil 1 synthetic 0w20 with Mobil1 M1-209 screw-on filter for the 2012. I've been doing this for these cars since they were new. We don't put too many miles/year on these cars and so I change the oil every fall and every spring. Never had a problem.

5k Mobil 1 0W40 with Mobil 1 filter.

I have used the mobil one bigger passat filter for years, works great! more oil capacity.

I use the M1-301 as well, the added capacity from the oversized filter is just nice for peace of mind. It's a PITA to get in and out though.

i used mobil 1 301 filter in my passat for a year never has black oil oh ya my motor has over 200k on it with 15psi on it. mobil 1 is good stuff

My last car ran bosch filters and mobil 1 5w30. the guts were spotless. for my break in period on the new one i used mobil 1 filter. for probably longer than i should have. filtered very well. oil had very little specks in it.

Mobil 1 0w40 in summer, 5w30 in winter, M1-205 filter all the time, oil is never black when I drain it after 4-5k miles

just changed oil tonight... Mobil 1 0W-40 (VW 502.00 approved) along with a Mobil 1 M1-205 filter... It's my second one, no issues with the first one...

I have used Mobil-1 filters for years. Best filter out there IMHO. Well, they recently (within the last year or so) redisgned the can and labeling. The new lable has a pictogram of a full filter with a circle with a line through it. I was like Since I've filled the filter for 16 years, I decided to call the 800 number and ask WTF? So the guy says that they changed their recommendation based on the fact that modern filters have bypass valves and filling it is pointless. I pressured him on it, and he said that filling it wont hurt, so do it if you like.
