Using an oem filter on a V8, am I Ok to change oil filter every 10k? I still plan on changing oil every 5k. I realize I can prob go longer on oil. Using Mobil 1.

It's like $8. Do it when you change the oil. Extend the OCIs to 6-8k.

Stupid not to.

Likely be better to change the filter at 5k and the oil at 10k. But:
CHANGE THEM BOTH.
The cost of one filter is about the same as 3 gallons of gas. Or 70 miles of driving. Why would you not change your filter other tan environmental reasons?
And it won't save the planet either.

Time, and To avoid dropping the skid and making a mess. I have the fumoto drain valave. I'd like to just open the valve, drain oil, add oil and be done, and just change filter every other oil change. I was just curious, if the filter can't handle it, I certainly won't do it.

I run Mobil 1 and change the oil and filter every 5k. I know I could go longer but, an oil change costs me 30 bucks and takes me 10 minutes to do.
I buy the OEM (90915-YZZD3) filters by the case (10) and wally world usually has the 5-quart jug of Mobil 1 for under 25 bucks.

I buy the filters in bulk for both my 4runner and wife's highlander on amazon. Oil from costco.

I change both every 10k.

It would probably handle it, Honda even recommends changing their oil cheap factory Honeywell filters every other OCI, so every 15k!

A lot of the new Yotas with the new canister filter are now recommending 10k intervals for average drives.


With that said, I'd change it out, but then again, it takes 10 second on my V6. If you want to run both for 10k, I'd suggest one of the good 15K+ filters like Amsoil, M1, or the Bosch Distance+. IIRC the M1 is guaranteed for 15k if you use their EP oil, I've run a Bosch D+ for 15k with M1 EP in my Honda and the Blackstone report came back sparkling.

You will be fine.

Back in the late 1970's early 1980's Toyota had decided that since oil had been so improved with modern technology and their state of the art engines were so we'll build that oil and filter changes would now be recommended at either 7.5k or 10k (I can't remember which but I'm leaning toward 7.5k. Maybe somebody can help me out here.) . To make the story short Toyota wound up paying for many engine replace/rebuilds due to sludge build-up. I've pretty much used Mobile 1 since it came out in the in the mid 70's. Have always changed Oil and filter at 4K to 5k intervals,even in the bought new 78 and 82 Celicas and the 84 mini-van despite factory recommendations. Never an issue and my oil always looks nearly as clean when it comes out as when it went in.
IMHO false economy is false economy.

I change my oil, Mobil 1, every 5k, but change the filter every 2.5k. I have always felt, IMHO, that a good synthetic oil or dino oil works best if kept clean. I also buy my filters by the case, and feel that my 4Runner deserves the extra 10/15 min attention every now and then.

Yal must have a lot of money to piss around...

Changing a good synthetic and filter under 10k intervals is just a big waste of money.

Best way to keep your oil clean is to change the oil. The filter can only filter down to a certain particle size and most filters are not that different from each other. A few filters like Amsoil, Mobile 1 Extended life and Wix XL filter down to a smaller particle size and have more filtering capacity. Not saying what you are doing is wrong especially if it makes you feel better, just saying you are better off running a top end filter and changing oil twice as often as the filter. As far as I know nobody filters better than Amsoil and what I normally run with a 15k mile oil change, but I am thinking of changing my routine to running oil for 7.5k miles and changing Amsoil filter every other oil change.

Changing the oil and not the filter is like taking a shower and putting on the same underwear you just took off......

Your 'big' waste of money, is my investment in my engine. Which I would like to keep a while longer.
