    What oil filter do you use??

    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.

    Thumbs up

    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.
