Good To Know

Q: How often should this oil filter be replaced? A: Most manufacturers recommend a new filter at every oil change or roughly every 3,000 miles, whichever comes first. Following that interval keeps contaminants from recirculating through the engine.

Q: Does this filter require any special tools to install? A: A standard filter wrench and a light coat of oil on the gasket are all that is needed. Hand-tighten the filter until the gasket contacts the mount, then snug it a quarter turn more.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
