Mobil 1 EP Oil Filters

Mobil tells you to run their EP oil to 15,000 with "any" oil filter. My 1998 manual tells me 15,000 miles on one oil filter is OK. 3MP ran two filters to about 15,000 miles with no problem. Little question that an oil filter can go 15,000 is a mechanically sound engine.
 
15K seems like asking a filter to do a lot... With so many filters, very good at a almost cheap price, I like changing them more often than not.

I have weened myself off the 3K synthetic changes!

However, I like to throw a new filter on every now and then.

I have run 10,000 to 12,000 miles on oil filters for 15 years - not a problem. Current van has 180,000 miles on it and has seen fewer than 18 oil filters installed.
 
Nice post. I just recently saw these at my local autozone. They did not mention how long they could be used for, but its seems to be another option for me as well. I posted this awhile ago.

About Frams Extended Oil Filter. Capable of going 7000 Miles. And its the same price as the Mobil Ep. anymore info on the mobil would be great.
