And if you like K&N oil filters, you might as well save a few bucks and use a Mobil1 oil filter. They are the same exact filter, except for the nut welded on the back of the K&N. |
Interesting... Funny thing is that before I was doing my own oil changes, I was bringing it to the dealer to have them change the oil. Turns out that after the first couple years of owning that car, the dealer never ONCE changed the oil filter! I pulled the factory oil filter off and almost blew my top. I was so pissed.
Talked to one of my friends who used to change the oil at that same dealership and he said that it was probably like 1 in every 20-30 cars they'd actually change the oil filter. I said "WTF WAS I PAYING FOR THEN!?" I know they're cheap, but that's total bullsh!t!!!
I had that car a LONG time. I can't believe it ran on the same oil filter for 4 years. (It was an 2002 and I didn't start changing my own oil until 2006.)
