Thx I will look into this

Still got the bu? I also have a 13. 2.5L. Was hers 2.0T or 2.5L? Switching from a 5w20 to 5w30 has helped.

Same price? I really think it's for people who think 0w40 is too thin. I asked a similar question about Rotella gas truck 0w20 and 5w20 recently. They are almost identical with viscosities across the range, so i really only think both exist because some people think 5w20 is too thick and 0w20...

What are they really,?

Yeah I got it on sale for $5.84 I think. Now its 7

I am watching my weight!

Ahh interesting. Hmm maybe this car with the k&n will be my guinea pig and teach me to use one again.

My DI engine is indeed super sooty. I had to clean out the secondary air injection system's valve a couple months back. I detailed the problem and process in this video.

What's the longest you can run an ACDelco filter? I know many now have the ecores and have cardboard filter ends. The OLMs in my 2013 Chevy Malibu are 7500 for standard driving and 5000 for severe. We do a lot of short commutes so I have observed that ours has defaulted to 5K. Would likely be...

The K&N is on the car now. It's almost up to its 5K OCI. I have a Fram Ultra on hand. I'll probably just ditch the used K&N and throw on the Fram but who knows, maybe not.

Well between the time I bought it and now, I have done more reading on here and I previously wasn't really aware of fram ultras, plus I always changed my oil and filter at 5k, so it didn't matter as much.

Even with Fram Ultras?

Its $7 for my car but I get your point. I am frugal by nature. Its been handed down.

Good eye. I updated my signature because I was planning on putting on the ultra very soon. But then I figured maybe I could run the K&N for another 5k. So that's the filter I have ready or I could just keep the k&n on there for now.

Ok, so run them for 1 or 2 oil changes? Your posts remind me of a story or movie without a defined ending. The reader gets to choose the ending that they like or think fits (like the sopranos).

Meaning use that brand? I'll keep that in mind but I already have filters purchased.

Weird that I cannot edit my original post to make it more clear. I can only edit subsequent replies.

Wait, that was my question. I thought in your first post you said I was good to run it for 2 straight?

How long would you guys run a K&N Performance silver filter? I have had it on our scion and was going to change the oil soon after 5k total miles. I was thinking about running it for another 5. I have read on here and listened on YouTube and it sounds like this has a synthetic blend media...

How did the filter get dented? Filter wrench?
