Please don't review this filter unless you have some knowledge of what you are reviewing or have had time to fairly review the product whether good or bad. I love this filters. They do a very nice job of filtering the oil especially for those of us using full synthetic oil and going longer intervals between changes. These filters are well constructed and have a thicker outer case which is great for those that may use them in trucks or vehicles going off road. They contain synthetic media inside which gives them the ability to give great filtration while still maintaining a high flow rate. That is critical in an oil filter as you want contaminants to be filtered out but you also don't want the filter restricting the flow of oil through the motor. These filters also have both an anti-drain back valve and a bypass valve to protect your engine. Without being too technical oil filters and oil are critical to the long life of your engine. If you plan on keeping your car or truck don't go cheap on these and you may save yourself some very expensive repairs in the long run. Read about the problems people have had with some VW/Audi, Toyota & Chrysler engines with oil sludge. Using quality filters and a high quality synthetic oil from day 1 could have prevented many of these sludge failures that cost the owners of these vehicles thousands of dollars. I have been using K&N oil filters in my vehicles for years and have never had a problem. Current owner of a Ford F150 & a Lexus GS430 and both use these filters.
Oh and as a footnote these filters are the same internally as the Mobil 1 Extended Performance filters. I think the Mobil 1 branding does cost a little more as they are the recommended filter to go along with the Mobil 1 extended performance oil. Only difference is the K&N case I think is a little thicker and the Mobile 1 branded filter doesn't come with the nut at the top of the filter. The internals are the same Champion Labs makes them. As an alternative the Wix filters are also very good and they come under Napa & Napa Gold branding from Napa Auto Parts stores. I have been very impressed with the Napa Gold Wix filters.
