Oil filter OEM Subaru or Mobil
I have used Mobil one synthetic on my 07 fit since 33,000km. Took the valve cover off once to adjust lash around 150, took it off at 200&230 and it looks like it was just assembled (I kid you not) - so realistically, I find the oil to be fine for my L15. Replaced my oil/filter ever 7000km (highway mostly) because it’s the cheapest maintenance if you plane to drive your car forever :)
So I have the very first year of the 2.0L Skyactiv engine in my Mazda 3 (2012). I have only used Mobile 1 alongside Mobil 1 filters. Truth is these engines are pretty solid.
The Mobil 1 m1-103a filter is the proper filter for your car. It's a high capacity filter designed for synthetic and it holds a large capacity of captured material.
i use mobil1 & OEM black filter. change it every 7000km.
I always use mobil 1 and a mobil 1 filter. The owners manual only recommends it.
Mobil1 0w20 and a Mobil1 Filter every 5k
I run M1 5w40 with an M1 filter.
Wait until you change the filter on a Subaru where the filter is upside down.
It is supose to be a good filter & the top of the line for filtering out small particles but not the best flowing. My car was a little more noisy with it so I switched back to VW filters.
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.
