Mobil 1 10w30. I'm switching to Synthetic after one more oil change.

Not to hijack, but does anyone know if there are larger oil filters for our car? The recommended ones are so small.

Um, you know that Mobil 1 IS a Synthetic oil, right? Also, I am sure you could mix and match the different filters to find a larger one, but why would you want to? With the materials they are using to make filters, a small one works just as good if not better than a large one. You might also get interference problems.

You want a large Filter.. Take a look at the size my italian cars use. Fram number PH8.

:unsure:

Um. . .by Mobil 1, what I meant was, er. . .Mobil Clean 7500.

Which I changed a lot sooner than 7500 miles. It's a synthetic blend I believe.
