Oil filter Wix or Mobil

I've had my truck nearly 30 years now and DIY'd DOZENS of oil changes. I've not once used an OEM filter. I use whatever's on sale, preferably K&N or Mobil 1, but often Fram or Purolator or whatever was on sale.

I can count on zero hands the number of times the brand of filter has affected my Taco.

if your car is stock, you don't have to worry too much about the oil and filter. i think last time i went with a mobile 1 filter and their extended performance oil but I have used other brands too. any OEM filter will be fine.

I prefer mobil 1 or wix filters, mobil 1 or castrol oil usually

Not that particular one, but I always used mobile 1 filters with all my vehicles, did with my ‘11 touring for the first couple changes, until we started to carry the OEM filter at store level

i keep using wix and haven’t had any issues

Subarus are honestly for the most part pretty easy to work on. Oil + filter changes are very easy. 30 ft/lbs, only use oem or wix filter imo

I use Mobil 1 oil filters purchased from Walmart. They’ve been good for me so far.

I second this. 99% filteration larger volume vs 95% of factory OEM filtration on a much smaller can.

Ordered 5 Quarts of Mobile 1 15W-50 and Mobil 1 Extended Performance M1-102A Oil Filter for my F800r at walmart for just $40 bucks total. Picking up today to do oil change.

Wix are better than fram or microgard but they dont beat factory, they restrict oil flow more

Mobil 1 filters are made by Champion Labs, which they use a louvered center core. The downside is, consistency, as the louvers have a tendency to be not be completely punched open.
