Best Oil Filter
Im looking for a better oil filter for my 2014 MR. I use mobil 1 oil and a mitsu filter from a dealer. After 2K miles my oil gets extremely dark and by 3K its almost black. Anybody has any experience/recommendation for a better oil filter? Anybody knows if it will affect factory warranty? Thanks

I use a mobil 1 filter just because I can get the like $7 off when I buy mobil 1 oil and filter. As far as the color you see, thats pretty normal. Oil goes in honey ish color and after just a little bit of running will change to a darker color. The darker color is caused by the combustion gases. I wouldnt be worried about it. A filter wont keep your oil the color like new oil is.

Yes sir. As a matter of fact, I typed in "oil filter" on the website's search engine and took me thru myriads of different threads and forums . I went through at least three pages of the query results and couldn't find anything which pertains to the discussion of "oil filters". I even did it twice. Sorry I opened a new thread for an old topic. I'm quite cognizant of the fact that the group encourages looking for old threads vs. opening new ones. Just the same, I really appreciate the info you sent me. I think I'll try Mobil 1.
