Be sure to check with the Auto or Truck Manufacturer to find the correct SIZE of Oil Filter for your vehicle. Amazon's Parts Locator says that the Motorcraft FL820S does not fit my 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis, 4.6 Litre V-8 engine. This is incorrect. The fact is that the Motorcraft FL820S is the FORD-recommended filter for my 1995 Mercury engine, and is recommended in almost every application of the Ford /Mercury/Lincoln 4.6 Litre engine size.

The Motorcraft FL820S interchanges with the BOSCH 3410, the FRAM TG2, and the K&N 2010.

The Motorcraft FL820S has over 50 pleats, good flow rate, silicone anti-drainback valve, and steel end caps. It sells for under 4 dollars in the chain auto stores, and is an excellent value that's MADE IN USA !!

My car is driven in heavy traffic, desert temperatures, mountain driving, and trans-desert trips from Phoenix to L.A.

The standard FORD Motorcraft Filters performed just as well as the high-dollar types -and filtered MUCH better than the K&N, which has a very high flow rate (for racing), but the low 90% efficiency rating of the K&N makes it a no-no for extended oil changes. I wouldn't run a K&N oil filter for more than 3,000 miles -you'd just be stirring up dirty oil and pumping it through the bearings !! :>(

For my American V-8 engine, I have found the best value to be the Motorcraft FL820S Oil Filter and NAPA Full Synthetic 5-W-30, API "SN" rated engine oil -which also meets the latest GM "Dexos1" performance specifications. The quality of the oil filter allows for filter changing every 5,000 miles, and the engine oil is changed every 10,000 miles.

For maximum oil life, be sure your PCV system is working properly -Wash out the PCV Valve with Carb Cleaner, and check for collapsed and/or damaged PCV hoses. A leaking PCV system will suck un-filtered dirt right into your engine !!

Motorcraft makes very good quality filters. I've read several comparisons one with great deal of detail and meaningful research. The results always ranked the MC filters among the very best and usually much better than the brands you know by name.

The only problem was that I didn't do much research before my purchase. I found out later that I could have purchased these at my local Trak Auto for much less.

5 star quality. 1 star value on Amo.

Only filter that will fit my 93 crown victoria. I tried fram,but I could not get it to fit,as there is almost no leeway,so I went back to motorcraft,and have been using it for 20 plus years on this same car.

Honest reviews on Motorcraft FL820S Silicone Valve Oil Filter

It's a "Motorcraft FL820S Silicone Valve Oil Filter". It shouldn't be better/ worse than the same unit from a different supplier. It was cheaper at Wal-Mart. I expect it's better than Fram, etc. Is a Wix or other premium brand better? Ford made the truck and this oil filter. Seems a safe bet.

I only gave it 4 stars because the price is high. While it is a great filter, it doesn't show any better filtering than the best WIX filter which is half the price at any Napa store. Compared to a K&N of the same price then yes it is a great deal.

Looks like all the others from the outside, except for the color.

It's doing a great job of cleaning the oil. Royal Purple of course.

Looks like oil, feels like oil, smells like oil. Passes the same testing standards as 100% virgin oil but with 50% recycled content. Seems like a win on all fronts.

This stuff just came out and was a cheaper alternative to G-Oil. I picked it up locally for $2.99 a quart on sale at O'Reilly the first time, then through Amazon for $3.80ish a quart with subscribe and save. I used it in my sister's 2008 Honda Civic EX 5,000 oil change intervals. Works the same as regular oil, looks the same coming out., reduces dependence on foreign oil, sounds good enough for me to buy it. Oil analysis looked great also.

I've used Valvoline products for years and started using this stuff when it first came out in my 1996 Oldsmobile which at the time had 215,000 miles on the original 3.1 v6 engine, now I do a lot (and I mean a lot) of traveling for work and the car now has 325,000 miles on it and the engine is still going strong. That's 110,000 miles on Valvoline next gen in an already pretty tired engine with out any issues, i'd say it passes in my book.

Honest reviews on Valvoline NextGen 5W-30 Conventional Motor Oil - 1 Quart Bottle

Valvoline White Bottle = Valvoline Green Bottle

Any oil that is API certified is good, this one has additives similar to Castrol GTX (on a side note Castrol is also used oil) in that it has a large dose of sodium specializing in anti corrosion. VGB and VWB are ment to be identical, however used oil makes for a better starting product than crude oil so Valvoline Green Bottle (VGB) is even or better. If you like VWB don't hesitate to use VGB in it's place.

due to the total incompetence at local oil change places, i decided to start doing my own oil changes. i drive a 2010 chevrolet hhr, 2.2L with 81,000 miles.

I do alot of highway driving so i change my oil around 5,000 to 5,500 miles give or take a few.

saw this on sale and gave it a shot. looked JUST Like the conventional Vavoline that i always used.

ive had in in for about 5,000 miles or so, and it peforms great. hey, if this can reduce or dependency on foreign sources of oil, and is cheaper, i'm all for it. plus its good for the enviornment.

i will update this later. seems to be a great product!

**update 10/4/13**

just the other day changed the oil in my vehicle, this oil came out the same color and consistency as previous oil changes (with conventional non-recycled oil).

i feel this is a good alternative. changing oil around 5,000 miles is always a good thing. hopefully my engine will give me 250K miles.. (or at least i can hope).

As other people have noted already, the MANN Filter is an OEM part. The Audi filter I replaced had the same imprint and looked identical.

I have used Mann filters for years and never had an issue with them.

Highly recommend to spend a few bucks extra to get the Mann filter over a cheap aftermarket product.

I use this filter in my 2008 VW Passat with the 2.0 turbo engine. The VW "OEM" filter seems to be made by Mann because it has the same marks printed on on the end. I have always used Mann filters (oil, engine air, cabin air) on my European cars because I'm sure I'm right on top of OEM quality.

This is the OEM part for some of the VW canister filter replacement elements. Works great, cheaper than the dealer. The difference between the dealer and these are that the dealer's have "made in germany" stamped on them, these are "made in mexico". I can't tell the different and save $8 dollars.

Honest reviews on Mann-Filter HU 719/6 X Metal-Free Oil Filter

I tend to keep cars for a long time so maintenance is important to me. My Audi came from the factory with Castrol 5W-40 Synthetic oil and a mann filter installed. While I think there are some decent filter makers out there, Mann is German. My Audi is German. QED...

The kit includes the filter and the all-important rubber gasket (complete with a little tab so you can pull it out of the filter holder). You will need a few tools to change your oil since the filters are in a plastic canister that needs a 36MM socket to unscrew safely. Plus, the canister is full of dirty oil so you need a hard to find $50 drain tool. And you need a torque wrench to put the canister back on to the 25.5 Newton Meters torque specified by Audi. But once you have all that, the filter fits perfectly and does what a filter does!

Good luck... And make sure to wear gloves dirty oil is a health hazard.

My supercharged Beetle is now so much happier with a quality Mann filter installed. Running Amsoil 12K mile oil & filter there is a noticeable difference right off the bat.
