Well I've been using Valvoline 10W-30 Full synthetic and Mobil1 oil filter for about 2 changes now and I've noticed much better filtration from the filter but I'm not convinced that the oil is doing its job.
While getting oil for a change I decided to go with Mobil1 oil and filter, I'm hoping things run smoother and my oil doesn't burn as quickly (mind you it's been very very hot here the past few weeks). Is anyone else using both Mobil1 filter and oil? how has it been working out for you? -------------------- ![]() Power in Balance 90 ST coupe- Sold 95 ST hatch- Dead :’( 02 Impreza RS- DD |

I know when I replaced my engine, I pulled the Tranny of my 7A and there was SO much oil in the housing. so if you cant find it you might need to look around there
