Oil filter Wix or STP

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

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

STP Oil filter

Rating 2.0

When I first purchased my VW, I could drive it how ever far in whatever temperature and wouldn't get any beeps or blinks. I brought it to a friend to do an oil change and he threw 5W30 in it with a STP oil filter. After that oil change, if the car was driven too long the light would blink and the ding would chime. If you revved to about 2300~ RPM, the noises and blinking would stop. I guess that is a temporary fix, but all I did was change the oil to 10W30 and haven't gotten any noises yet. I guess 5W30 is too thin and can't build up enough oil pressure? I'm not too sure.

Pros: 10W30 oil works well
Cons: 5W30 oil caused beeps
Vehicle: Volkswagen
