If you do a search Oil threads are very popular. I use the Purolator Pure One PL14610 and Rotella Synth oil ($16 for a gallon at Walmart)

VFR Filters

Recommended filters.
All have superior filtering.

About 2.5 inches long.
• Purolator Pure One PL14612, about $6.
• Mobil M1-108, about $12. Made by Champion.
• Bosch 3300, about $6. Made by Champion.

About 3.25 inches long.
• Purolator Pure One PL14610, about $6.
• Mobil 1 M1-110, about $10. Made by Champion.
• Bosch 3323, about $6. Made By Champion.
• WalMart SuperTech ST7317, about $2. Made by Champion.

I totally agree with Action. I've used the Pure One 14612 and have over 80K miles on my 5th gen. Just got a 6th gen and plan on using the same filter. Never a problem. Always a great fit, and the new coarse coating is really nice. Gotta love a good product at a good price.

I usually go to Advanced Discount Auto Parts ($6.49). Pep Boys has them also but are another .50. Any major parts store that carries the PureOne line should have them.
