Just wondering what oil filter everyone uses. I have done the search for the vmag forum and seems that some are using a bigger filter from Purolator #PL 22458. I have used Fram forever and never had a problem until the last two times on the VX (the only 2 times for the VX) It seems to leak, must be just at higher RPM's, I don't have leak spots in my driveway or anything. I have wanted to find out about a bigger filter anyway so any info ya'll have would be great! It just seems the Fram does not seal very good and also is very tiny.

;Dy; I've been using the K&N oil filter with Castrol GTX Synth/blend. So far no complaints.

I have seen reference to a Pure One PL 24460, but when I went to buy one today, Puralator manual said to use PL 24459 for the Vehicross? Anybody know the difference between 24459 and 24460?

Yeah, "1"

Sorry, couldn't resist!

I haven't started investigating the Oil Filter situation just yet.

I only had my VX a month now, and figured I would start looking into it just before I need an oil change.
