Oil filter VALVOLINE or MOTUL

Motul and oem filter.

I like using motul with OEM filters but I doubt it's making much of a difference.

I have been unfortunate enough to be underneath a customers car, taking the oil filter off, when they decided to fire it up. If that Valvoline didn't put the filter on right, you would have known driving home not In a month.

Oem is pretty much everyone’s go to ( for good reasons ) but valvoline actually has an updated filter for our cars that matches oem & I’ve been using them for last 6 oil changes ( 30,000km ) & I’ve had 0 issues

If I really care about the car, I use Motul and a factory filter.

I use Valvoline advanced full synthetic or quaker state full synthetic, and those oils seem to hold up very well (ive tried plenty of different brands) and you can buy it anywhere for top off oil. I have been interested in using liquimoly though. For filters, i use k&n, wix, or the nissan oem.

An oil change is no witchcraft, good oil (motul) costs about 40€ to 60€ for a 4L canister, oil filter about 10€. Oil change is done every 6000 to 10000 km, depending on the motorcycle.

Go on Groupon and look for shops in your area. I get coupons for Valvoline and they’ve always been good to me. I save a good bit as well!

I just put Valvoline full synthetic high mileage 5w-20 with a motorcraft filter in my 2011, and it runs so smooth now. I used to have some noise on startup but nothing now.

The "valvoline" brand ones are pretty shit.
