What kind of oil is everyone running?

Use M1 Full-Synthetic in all our Hondas, 0W-20 for the Pilot, Odyssey, and eventually my EX when it is due. Use 0W-30 in our oldest Honda.

Since we are on the topic of oils, what filters do y'all usually run?

Oil filter : Purolator Pure One ; Mobil-1 ​
These came up as some of the top filters in a cut-away exam of most filters at the time, and including bypass ports.​
I'm not knowledgeable or have ever heard of Wix, so I'm not approving or dissing it.​
I would like to mention that Fram is on the bottom of the list...........

May as well use notebook paper! Fram are garbage.


I am using the AmSoil Absolute Efficiency Oil Filter.
 
Where are y'all getting your oil at? Around here, I can get a jug of mob 1 for about 30, the Wix filter is 12. My dealer charges $45. It's almost cheaper for me to take it to Honda to change it.
 
Mobil 1's not even a True Synthetic, so if that's what you're going for, you're wasting your monies.

I had to go to a few dealerships until I found it, I've only had 2 oil changes and had my Si almost 2 years now, only 10K on the odo, my 1st oil change my dealership didn't have it, by the time I had my 2nd change they had it, search all your area Honda dealers if you can until you find it, hope this helps?!
