    2014 Subaru Forester Oil Weight Recommendation Request

    I'm looking for guidance on an oil weight for my son's 2014 Subaru Forester Limited to reduce oil usage. He recently purchased the vehicle with 166,100 miles. He has 1,671 highway miles on the oil change he did when he bought vehicle and today he is down exactly 1/2 liter and we added 17 ounces...

    Latest filter comparison.

    In their previous video they made the comment: "We're by no means are implying we're conducting and ISO 4548 test here, those tests would require million dollar equipment, a lab we just don't have. But we want to make sure we incorporate best practices to make this testing as fair and repeatable...

    Thinking of Moving From Fram Ultra to PurOne

    Good Evening Biscuit, Here are the top 10 from my database based on performance and price to help you decide. IMO, I'd stick with the Ultra or go with a Tough Guard for both their good filtration and life. The PureOne you're considering has good specs and price also.

    Benefits of Running a Larger Oil Filter? (Cold starts etc)

    Hi CR94, I wonder if the filters have gotten smaller because the engines are cleaner burning combined with improvements in motor oils and fuel. The filters I buy state a life in miles with an efficiency of 99% at 20 microns. As long as those are maintained I feel the product is sound. I'm not...

    Benefits of Running a Larger Oil Filter? (Cold starts etc)

    Help me understand why we would run a filter other than what has been engineered and specified for our vehicles? The oil filter manufacturers have engineering teams to insure their filters meet/exceed the lubrication and filtration requirements of the manufacturers' engine.

    Fram XG7317 C&P

    Good Morning KCJeep, I agree with you. The only performance difference between the Tough Guard and Ultra is an additional 5K of life for an additional $1.80. Perhaps Fram realized the backing feature on the Ultra didn't generate the volume they expected and removed it. Or they realized they...

    Fram XG7317 C&P

    Great decision going with the Tough Guard. Best performing filter for the dollar. With it rated at 15k miles, you have a robust safety factor for your OCI!

    US Steel sold to Nippon

    If Nippon can update the plants and grow it will be a win for the USA. I watched a YouTube on Gary, IN. that has a USS plant and it is a sad, unkept ghost town with thousands of houses and buildings totally abandoned and dilapidated. I hope Nippon can revitalize the city through growth.

    Fram Ultra 3614 cut open. 4 years/24,350 miles.

    Good Morning Oro_o, Thank you for the detailed and complete answer on your thought process for your OCI! Also thank you for sharing the C&P of your filter. I was always curious how a filter would look taken to its advertised limit with multiple oil changes. BTW, do you know the system...

    Fram Ultra 3614 cut open. 4 years/24,350 miles.

    Hi Oro_O, The Ultras are rated at 20,000 miles, why is your OCI plan to take it to 21,500 miles?

    Champ XL vs. "new" Fram Ultra?

    I watched the start of the YouTube and the retail box it comes in has 99% efficiency printed on it but unfortunately no micron statement Danny, I found this in the BITOG thread for contacting Champ Labs for technical info. [email protected]
