[Matagonka]

I used this filter in my 2018 Mazda 3 for 8000 miles plus a lot of idling during lunch and breaks, aprx. 160 hrs idling while parked.

filter did great!

In the third picture, (named D4Exxxxx), towards the bottom, there is a white object--is that a tear, or something caught in the media?

Just a drop of oil in the filter that's shining because of the light.

Another good looking fram. I haven't used the TG filters, just the orange can.

Is there room for a TG7317?

I couldn't fit it in mine since it would block the access to the drain bolt

I'm gonna run what's built for it.

I have 10k on one on my Ford 150. I can't get it off so I'm going to have to take it to a shop soon.

Same Fram TG and Supertech 0w20. However, because of lots of idling, I will switch to Castrol EP next.

Nice. Ty for the ctrl X and ctrl V. Why not M1 ep and the TG?

Castrol Edge EP gives me more of a tickle.

Three reasons:
I lived in Europe and Castrol was big there. Brings back memories.
M1 is pretty popular, so why not give Castrol a chance.
Mazda recommends Castrol, but it doesn't really make a difference.

Perfect reasoning.
