Oil filter Wix or Mobil

I changed my oil filter at the 350 mile mark and upgraded to the Mobil 1 M1-104A oil filter. Just passed 1300 miles and it's doing just fine.

I'm using the M1-104A on my 2022 INT650 and haven't had any issues. It's got about 2500 miles since I changed the oil/filter after the break in.

I would highly recommend Rock auto, there website is simple old school but they are no bs auto parts store and will only show what does fit. They often show the real part your buying (say for tie rod), I've bought thousands of $ of brakes and suspension components over the last 20 yrs and always correct, they often sell OEM parts or the direct suppliers version of OEM which is unique. It will take some time for most of the aftermarket parts for the CX50 but at this point WIX or OEM Mazda are going to be your best bet for oil filters

If you're going to go aftermarket, the Wix/Napa Gold filter is also designed to meet Mazda's specs.

If you want to go aftetmarket I recommand using WIX filter they are good stuff

For oil filters, the highest-rated brand performance-wise was the Mobil 1 Filter. Stay away from Fram, cheap shit. Take one apart some time and you'll see why.

In my stable: The Nissans get OEM Nissan oil filters. The VWs get Mann The Mazda gets OEM Mazda filters The Mercury, Triumph, and the Toyotas get WIX.

I like MOBIL 1 Extended performance filters pretty good synthetic media and not too expensive (if you can find your model) at walmar

I have used the Mobil 1 ones in the olden times when they gave you extra rebate bucks for using one.

I've used the Fram filter for the first oil change at 8K miles and the car sounded very rough for 10 minutes each time the car was started. Used WIX filter for 2nd oil change. No issues.
