Which one of the THREE oil filters is better?
 

For those in the know, I'm about to bulk order some oil filters.

I had been using the Napa (Wix), but it's on the expensive side.

I have heard very good things about the Denso, which is OEM spec (Atkins Rotary rebadge), and apparently has lots of filter media.

I have heard good things about the Purolator PureONE, but also heard it may be a little restrictive.

I have heard very good things about the Nippon.

(I can't find a supplier for the Toyko Roki, which I've heard VERY good things about).

Here they are (about the same price):

So, which one?

I used WiX, now I use K&N, soon gonna use Mobil1 (thx to the AutoZone deal)

WiX is not that expensive IMO.

The NAPA Gold is basically $8, which is lot, IMO, for an oil filter if one is changing their oil every 3-4k miles.


I do like the WIX build quality and flow rate, though.

What's the AutoZone Mobil 1 filter deal?

TIA

Real my Castrol thread in General Automotive Section :)

I can get WiX filter at my local auto shop for 6 bux a piece. Not that much IMO :)

I change my oil every 1.5 - 3K miles ... am I pouring money down to the drain ? :)

Mazda OEM that dealers sell, it is of a different supplier than Atkins rotary (Mahle in Germany I believe)

I use "Fram" Hard drive or what ever its called. The one for stop and go traffic.

I've always used Mobil 1. Never tried anything else.

Lol...not even close. it's called "tough gard"

i like the nippon filters

Mobil 1 Model M1-108 for a Mobil Filter. the Mobil 1 Model M1-110 is a bigger filter 'longer', it's in the threads. I've been using this and i fits just fine.

K&N and Wix as they provide excellent flow to go with good filtering.

been getting my filters from atkins for a very long time, but what do they now about rotarys!!! ;)

beers :beer:

I recently switched to Atkins.

Atkins diet... nice

I use the Mobil1 M1-110

I use K&N...not that its a big deal, but the 1'' nut attached to the top makes it easier to replace using a ratchet.
