Oil filter Wix or Hengst

Wix Oil filter

I use 5W-30 Mobil 1 synthetic oil in it with Wix filters.

The car runs smoother, burns less oil, idle feels quieter, oil comes out less dirty and overall, the car just feels better.

Pros: runs smoother, burns less oil
Mileage: 230000 km

Wix Oil filter

Purolator and Wix filters are made by mann+hummel. Both are excellent filters. The Wix filter part# 57002 is made specifically for the 2.5 non turbo Skyactive engine because it does not have an anti drain back valve and same goes for oem. 0w20 only comes in synthetics so as long as you use what is recommended in the manual you can use your favorite oil. I will be doing 3-4K oci.

Pros: excellent filters, specific fit
Vehicle: Mazda
Part number: 57002

Hengst Oil filter

My E550 gets M1 0W40 every 5k, with a new fleece Hengst filter. I don't drive it hard until I see past 80C on the water temp (I don't have an oil temp gauge- only the E63s do). Basically the same procedure I use on my S54 BMWs, and every performance car I've ever owned

Pros: new fleece filter, part of care regimen

Wix Oil filter

I used to strictly go OEM with the blue filters, but switched to WIX after watching this:No issues to report.. little more peace of mind

Pros: no issues, peace of mind

Wix Oil filter

The car takes a different oil filter (wix 57170). The filter housing has a center structure coming out of it that slides in the bottom of the filter (to keep it in place?) and the new filter doesnt have that. I sat there with a dremel for 2 hours and made the new filter fit. Success, but its still leaking the same amount of oil.

Cons: did not fit correctly, required modification, still leaking oil
Part number: 57170
