edgarss44 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Hay guys I'm about ready for a oil change and I'm wondering what oil filters you guys are running with synthetic oil? Is there a best one? Or are they all about the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC03SS Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 There are a lot of good ones. Pure 1 AcDelco I personally use Amsoil and Amsoil Filters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggerdan11 Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I use K&N, and the only reason is that it has the ability to attach a wrench to the end which makes it so much easier to change it out. As far as it being better than any other filter I could not say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1BAD2K Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I use k&n or royal purple. If you can find a wix, they are good too imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are made by WIX they are ok. End of the day most filters are about the same. Tomato tamato......

edgarss44 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Oh! OK! I did not know that! Thanks for the info on the Napa filters! What about the fram filters or royal purple filters? Anybody have experience with those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick4317 Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I put one of the synthetic Fran filters on my Tahoe with Mobil 1 oil. After less than a month on start up I had horrible ticking shut it off and restarted same thing. Did another oil change with Mobil 1 oil and filter no problem since. I run only Mobil 1 filter now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
levilz Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Badically what EXGM said. Napa Gold filters are the same as Wix, which is a partner company of AMSOIL. The EA filter's filtration is slightly better than the Wix, and holds up a little better for extended use, but costs a little more, so it basically comes down to personal preference. Fram used to be decent a hundred years ago, but now, their oil filters are crap. If you want decent and cheap, Purolator seems to be ok.
