Best Oil Filter?! Bosch? K&N? FRAM? WIX?

[nando]

An oil filter is an oil filter, there's no difference in brand lol.

uhm, what?

[djjerme]

others beat me to posting that older filter study... But lately, I have been running either K&N or Mobil 1 depending on which one AutoZone has on sale.

Car quest filters are all made by WIX as well

lol, don't know where "in brand" came from.

Purolator Pure One is the best value you will find.

Bosch is best.Oil filters perform a very important function. Bits of metal chip off of various engine parts during the engine's operation. If these bits of metal re-circulate through the oil, these bits will break off other bits of metal. It's erosion. And the erosion occurs under significant pressure. Any erosion that does occur will occur quickly and can compound at exponential rates.

you need to mann up

[QUKBMER]

We use bosch, mann , mahle , hengst fliters. I stick a magnet to the side of mine to collect the metal particles.

[Mlarsen]

Mann or Full depending on what is available. Anybody who say there isn't a difference is smoking crack. Cut a Mann filter and a Fram in half and you'll see the difference. Plus Fram gaskets ALWAYS leak.

[nando]

fram filters can work OK but for the same price you can get a better filter.

On my m20 i used MANN filters, mostly because I bought a bunch of them cheap on one of my parts orders from a worldpac distributor. The m52, im not sure what element I am using right now, but its due for an oil change soon...

I get Mahle filters from Blunt or Napa... ask for their "Altrom" line of products
