I have a feeling the filter issue may fix itself after First Brands bankruptcy.

Good answer. I refrained from responding
Perfect, thanks for the detective work. Hopefully, by the time I buy more SS next fall, the old stock will be bought up.
Is this Champion?
Any idea what they changed? (Besides the price, I'm sure.)
No idea. They don’t share formulas with contractors.
Yes. Champ Labs. They make Fram Endurance, Royal Purple, and some Amsoil filters.
Revolutionary is ridiculous. It’s not any different from any other motor oil meeting the new spec. Nothing different or special in any peculiar way.
You really don't know anything about the formulation.
Didn’t you know? Nothing has changed about oil for the better? It’s worse now than we’ve ever had it?
/sarcasmI’m just waiting for this expert to chime in on the new formulation the are so privy to.
It’s kinda funny to see ignorant comments regarding base oils in 2025. You’d think this was pre-Y2K levels of “intel”.

Holy crap man, give it a break. So you don’t like AMSOIL. Good for you. Instead of complaining about AMSOIL go talk up your favorite oil. It will make you feel better and more positive.
How did you get your hands on the new formula not coming out until March?
Please post the results of your analysis or source.

The haters gonna hate. One guy on a BMW forum complained once he wouldn't buy it because the UPS driver left it on the porch and didn't ring the doorbell.
I ran the the Heavy Duty Diesel & Marine Amsoil in my '92 Mercedes from the 2nd oil change, doubled the manual's 5k mile change to 10k miles, and sold it at 348k miles with no leaks, no repairs, no consumption between 10k changes, and compression like new. Yeah, yeah, the idjuts will say that any dino diesel oil will do that

Yeah say what you will about Amsoil. But I haven't seen anyone I can remember offhand who had bad results long term. I think maybe @OVERKILL had increased consumption but that may have resolved if he continued to run it.The haters gonna hate.

I gave it several OCI's in the Expedition and, for whatever reason, the consumption never lessened, so I had to stop using it. I continued to use that oil in other applications (our Honda outboard) with no consumption issues.
Where’s your proof?
With all others bringing out higher and higher mileage guarantees on their oils, I’m really curious if SS will become a ‘35k oil’…when SSO 0W-30 came out, that is what it was rated at. Then it was dropped back to 25k to ‘match’ the other grades of SSO. Now EVERYONE has a 25k oil…as I’ve daid before, “Where to now, Amsoil?”
Oil formulations are evolving, but there's always the issue with contamination. Additives play a large role in helping control it, but can only do so much, especially on the newer engines with low-tension rings, VCM, and all this other garbage.
