I read a great many reviews, tests, and anecdotal reports before choosing an oil filter for my car. I wanted something better than an old-style cellulose filter media. The Mobil 1 EP filter is a hybrid of both synthetic and cellulose media.

I have no issues with the Mobil 1 EP filter in my car. I have no valvetrain or other abnormal noise, even at startup.

The M1EP has a quality gasket, so it goes in and comes out easily. The can is very solid. This means two things: The M1EP will not burst if your oil pressure spikes; and unlike some cheap oil filters, the M1EP won't bend when you remove it. The anti-drainback valve is made of quality silicone. The bypass valve is controlled with a coil spring.

I've had my oil tested for particle counts with M1EP filters, with one particular brand of filters using pure synthetic media, and with filters using pure-cellulose media. Based on the numbers I saw, the M1EPs did a vastly better job of cleaning up the oil. That is, the particle count was much lower with the M1EP versus the OEM cellulose filters, and versus the pure synthetic filters. It wasn't even close.

The only bad point, at first glance, is that it costs more than many filters. But it can be kept on for 15,000 miles. If you keep it on for two or more oil changes, the price factor ceases to be an issue. Besides, my car--and my peace of mind--are worth it.

Just one other note: The packaging and product labeling on M1EP filters has changed recently (as of early 2012). The new packaging claims "99.9% efficiency", where previously it said "99.2%". It also says it lasts "3X as long", where before it said "2X". I called Mobil and asked about this, to see if the oil filters had changed, or if this was merely for appearances. I was told that only the packaging/labeling has changed. The product itself has not changed.

The previous deal on a 6-pack of M1 filters wasn't to be found. The filters themselves are fine, one of the better built units out there, just hope to find better prices (I go thru several filters a year).

Ordered filters 2 day free shipping. Arrived on time and in perfect condition. Filters are heaver then other filters (fram, purolator, etc). Wonderful material of construction quality. Internals have spring loaded backflow preventer and nicely designed filter media and supports. I've used so far fram 9688, microguard to date. In my opinion there is no comparison to Mobil extended guard.

Good price for money. I have 06 hyundai sonata 4 cylinder. Would highly recommend filters.

Stop using oem filter because they sometimes were out of the original mitsubishi filter. Took it to the dealer and it fit without any problems. I checked it after a 100km run and it had no leaks.Cannot feel any difference but at least I figured since I was using Mobile 1 10W30 oil that this filter would be a good match.The filter cost 2 dollars less than the oem filter.
