Correct oil and filter?

Those prices are good but I swore off M1 filters as they dropped my oil pressure by about four or five pounds. It flows about 50% less than K&N and filters 30 microns versus 12 for the same filter. Already wrote about why I switched off of their oil.

Yes mine is Still Clean and FULL No oil burned (No oil consumption) with the 5w30 Extended Performance..

2500 miles into the oil change it's still a "clean yellow"

mostly idling anyways 1000-1400rpm is typical driving I do avoid having to rev it passed 2k rpm unless i'm getting on the CA-110 with those STOP sign with 5 feet of on ramp entrances and i need to get to 45 mph in a few seconds..

price point it's hard to complain

he should just go to walmart and pick up two 5 qts of mobil1 45$ and $10 for the filter. $55(pls tax)

minus $17 rebate and $12 rebate Net Cost $26(not including sales tax)

but I do suggest getting 4 x5qt and 2 mobil1 filters (basically you get two oil changes for the price of one @ $52)

I bought 2 5qt for $46 steal of a deal as they screwed up and still had a promo that should have been removed last jan 2018 Still up on display in june 2019 LOL

So my oil change will cost $17 after i get my rebate

That is exactly what do. The last time I was at Walmart they priced the single quarts of Mobil 1 0w20 AP the same price as the 0w20 EP which is what I usually get. I bought every last one of them. The dealer had the AC Delco Filter for 6 bucks last year so bought several at that time.

An oil filter that drops your pressure by 5 lbs flows better, not worse. It's the pump that determines flow and the restrictions downstream that determine pressure.

Yes but, more will come than you want. Unless you hold the plug right on the oul pan but you’re probably gonna make a mess..

How much extra? Id pull the filter after its cooled down and let it drain that way and then check level after filter is back in

Edit: I didn’t read your post fully but yeah, do it thru the filter

Dear Concern,

A bunch of thanks for your kind response and i will check details as on your asking.
will contract again if needed for any more issue.

Appreciated your nice co-operation.
