Remote bypass oil filtration

**toyotaparter** · August 22nd, 2012 12:05 PM

Hello again folks, * dvldoc, earlier in this thread you mentioned that not all oem filters are crappy. How do mazda oil filters compare to fleetguard or baldwin's?

they are fine for standard oil change intervals, most oem filters will not be any better than 40 to 30 microns absolutE (98.6%) they will also hold about 3 times less dirt than a fleet service filter.

This is a good layman's term explanation on OEM vs. fleet filters.

Huwag ka maniwala. Last year pa nila yan sinasabi. Every month na-move.

Nakakainis na nga eh, oh well. Sana naman before end of the year may dumating na. Pag may dumating, sana we can limit ourselves to 2 per item

para naman yung ibang gusto, makakuha din. I guess 2 filters will last us 20K which is enough for 1 year worth of travel.

Meron naman si doc na binebenta na mas maganda pa sa BD28 so meron pang magagamit na iba.

*sir dvldoc
You said that wix oil filters are good. Are there any problems with the quality of wix oil filters produced here? I'm just curious because almost everyone here are looking for baldwin. I haven't read the whole thread yet but our car is due for change oil next week so I need some info. My place is too far from volmax but if the oil filter of baldwin has a significant advantage over the wix filter then I'll opt for the baldwin. I'm a bit wary of the fleetguard sold here right now so that's out of the question.

And one more thing, our car usually takes a year to get to only 4-5k km - short trips mostly. So, are mineral oil(mobil) + baldwin/wix filter good for a year/5,000km or do I really need to get the mobil1 fully synthetic. How about semi-synthetic?

Thanks in advance doc.
