This filter wrench works great for my 2007 Ford Fusion. The Fusion has absolutely no space around the filter since it is recessed up a few inches and I used to spend 20 minutes busting my knuckles trying to get channel lock pliers to grip. Regarding the user who said it doesn't have space for allen wrench to get in, well that's because it's not needed to remove the filter cap. The allen wrench merely removes the small drain plug in the cap to let the oil drain out before you pull the whole cap off. You remove the drain plug first and let it empty, then use this wrench to remove the black plastic cap to change the filter cartridge. I tried using standard size filter wrenches but the only ones stocked locally are 15 flutes which won't fit the 2.3l cap. Overall this has been a great time saver.

Part works like a charm to remove the oil filter on a 2008 Mazda 6 4cyl car. I've tried other plastic tools from various retailers and they have been either too small, too big or slip off...this one fits the perfect.

Like the other reviews say... you still have to use a 6mm Allen key to remove the plug from the plastic housing and let the oil drain out before using this tool to remove the plastic housing and get to the internal oil filter (cartridge style). Great product, highly recommended!!!

This product worked great and the price was good too! I was surprised that I could not get this item from the local auto parts stores or from the local Ford dealers either. One local product was made out of plastic and .5mm larger. I tried it hoping for the best but, it didn't work at all. This oil filter socket is well made (metal) and will last forever.

Honest reviews on OTC 6903 2.3L Oil Filter Wrench Socket for Ford/Mazda

Fits the Mazdaspeed 6 oil filter housing cover perfectly. Obviously, you need a 3/8" socket wrench. Be sure to have a 6 mm Allen wrench handy in order to remove the drain plug in the filter housing. Things are a lot less messy if you remove the plug after draining the crankcase and before removing the filter housing cover with this tool and your socket wrench. You need to be sure to seat the Allen wrench deeply into the hex hole in the plug -some gorillas managed to "round off" the more superficial level of the hex hole on my car...

After I tried Castrol OEM oil, Mutol VW specific 5w40. This has the least NVH by ALOT!! The acceleration are much smoother and the engine has ZERO vibration when idle.

I've used redline products for the past 15 years and my bill is about 1 grand a year to keep my cars and trucks filled with their products. Previously I've put the 15-40 in my diesel truck and car, but the 5-40 looks to have even better specs and I will now switch over to the 5-40 for my diesel engines. In colder climates, this oil should be easier on the starter (which I broke on my truck)
