I'm gonna have to read more into the filters. It seemed like the stuff I read the mopar filter had quality parts. I believe it's made by Purolator or WIX. I don't like oil change intervals to be over 5,000 if I can avoid it oil changes are cheaper than a new engine, plus the 0W-40 SRT oil is carbon neutral so it not hurting the environment when I do oil changes. LolI have read this too. Read Burla's posts. He is more informative than most when it comes to oil & filters. I have used Penz 0W-40 for 80k with no problems as of now. Filters you really need to look out for. The Mopar ones are NOT good from the articles I have read. I have ONLY been using Fram Synthetic not any of the other media or WIX XP synthetic. Both show to filter well for the money. I wouldn't use anything with paper media. They seem to fail often. My truck gets used too. Summers I am pulling a 13k 5th wheel nearly every weekend. I change early at 5-8,000 intervals just to make sure I keep the new valve system clean. If the needle bearings get gunked up it will take out the whole top end of the motor & possible more. Another reason why I am not straying from what FCA recommends. Every person on here that has had cam & lifter issues were NOT using Penzoil 0W-40. Probably start a war on here but that is what they recommend & that is what I choose to use.
