Oil filter OEM Subaru or OEM Hyundai

OEM Subaru Oil filter

I order the OEM Subaru filters and use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w30. In your case you’d probably want to start using Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage.

Pros: OEM Subaru filters, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum
Vehicle: Subaru

OEM Hyundai Oil filter

OEM Hyundai oil filters have a better anti-drainback valve than aftermarket filters, and they're cheap enough to use every time you change your oil. While I've used Mobil 1, Wix, and K&N oil filters on my other vehicles, my Elantra GT ONLY gets OEM filters. Personally, I wouldn't switch to aftermarket.

Pros: better anti-drainback valve, cheap
Cons: none mentioned

Rating 0.5

I swapped in a new Subaru OEM oil filter on my 2016 MT. After a short 1.5 miles drive, thin smoke escaped from beneath the hood, and a pool of oil gathered. Oil was literally burbling up from beneath the oil filter and spilling out. I immediately turned off the engine. I will not be using anymore of the junk OEM oil filters.

Cons: catastrophic oil leak, filter failure
Vehicle: Subaru
