I'll put it this way... most, if not all of the failed engines that come through the shop have had aftermarket oil changes with aftermarket filters installed. Yet all of the vehicles that are well over 200,000 miles that come through and run great have OEM filters and oil.

With something as important to the engine as oil, and the filtering of said oil... Why risk it with anything less than what is proven to be the best option?
