quick Rookie question
 

Anyone re-use there oil filters? I have been using mobile 1 oil filters and they are like 13 bucks or something. I happen to see that it says it last 15,000 miles. I have been just changing mine every time i changed the oil, am i wasting money or should i just keep doing what I'm doing? Thanks.

Always change the filter with the oil, I never re-use them and would never tell somebody to.

You reuse a condom after you've nutted in it?

Stop buying extended life filters save $$$ and get the ac delco filter

Actually some of the synthetic oils recommend you change the filter before you change the oil. You can test oil but there's no way to know a filter has failed and the internal bypass valve has opened. Once that happens it's not filtering the oil anymore. M1 filters and some of the other premium filters like Bosch and Pureone are very high efficiency (~99%) so they will trap a lot of crud.

i run ac delco filters, theyre like $4 dollars

What about wix filters? One of my college professors loved em

always change the filter...i would never chance that

At this momentthats all I use there one of the best. Six is one of the very few company's that still make there own oil filters. AC turned into a shit filter there was a site that explained about oil filters and told you which ones were the best to get. Like the Mobil 1 is a higher priced shit filter. Look on lie for oil filter test I think it was done by an independent person.I think but it was a very extensive test they actually opened up about 30 different oil filters and explained about them and who made them. That's why I use wix filters know there were about 4or5 filters that came out with a high rating. The site is oil filters reveled min mopar resources.

You guys put oil in your car?

Pffft crazies
