Rolled up 1500 miles on my odo this weekend, decided it was time to change the oil. Stopped and bought the Mobil1 10w30 goodstuff and looked around for a filter for the EVO... and looked... and looked...

Are you guys using genuine filters for your oil changes? I'd prefer to use Mobil 1 or one of the other big companies, anybody got a part number for an EVO filter??

I ended up going ahead and changing the oil anyway (had to, I've got a 2000 mile road trip coming up in just a couple of days and I simply HAD to swap out the oil before leaving!!), but since the dealers were all closed I had to reuse the "old" filter for now!! I'll just use the current filter for that trip and change the oil again as soon as I get back and swap the filter for a new one then.

 

It is the MD356000 oil filter

 

Thanks,yes, I think that was the Mitsu part number on the one I pulled off. I will have to go that route if I can't find an aftermarket filter.

I was hoping to get a part number for a Mobil1 filter for it though... anyone?

 

I have not seen an aftermarket oil filter yet. I recommend using the one from

 

I cross referenced the stock number - MD356000. And found the number for K&N is HP-1004. I think the Mobil 1 filter would be a 104.

 

use filters...

 

I'd keep receipts of the oil bought or other records just in case you need to make a warranty claim. Thinking of the warranty, using Mitsu filters is also recommended.
