I use the K&N Gold because of the removal nut. My filter is in a spot that makes removal with an old-school filter wreck extremely difficult, while the nut of the K&N filter makes taking it off a piece of cake. It's nice to see one cut open, so now I can better confirm the quality of it with the ease it provides when doing oil changes.
I'm pretty sure the nut on the K&N is only for removal. If you use to install, you could crack a spot weld and weaken the case, or crush the gasket too much.
On my car, there is little room for tightening so the filter is finger tight rather than hand tight. Oil filter wrenches you can't guage tightness well at all. Just go nice and easy with the socket wrench.
Hello Dan, I subscribed because I appreciate your efforts. For several years now I've been using K&N HP Gold on my 4 automobiles. I purchase them from my local Wal-Mart. Recently, my local Wal-Mart began offering the K&N PS filters while ending shelf space for HP filters. This video gives me confidence that the PS filters will serve me quite well. I've created an account with amsoil and found that one of the filter sizes I want is out of stock due to the covid-19 shipping crisis. That glitch in the marketplace is certainly one reason for me to continue using the K&N PS filters.
I would suggest kN filters for off road applications since they are pricier and more heavily constructed. But for my normal daily travels I opted to install fram XG on all my vehicles. Fram xg are not the cheapest(right in the middle), but as disposable goods which needs to be replaced at 5-6000 mile intervals I believe that they are worth the cost along with decent synthetic oils. This is a very good and factual video you presented. There’s other videos out there that will present ppm data on actual filtration of said or similar filters. As always, use every bit of information with common sense and that’ll put everything in perspective.
How funny, I just changed my oil today and recognized the oil filter you are using in the demo fits a 6th generation 4 cylinder Honda accord. I got the regular black one without a nut because I didn't see any of the white ones, and I usually use Castrol gtx magnatec. I think this duo is unbeatable for harsh winter.
Nice review, but I'd like to see you do some testing on the filter media itself. Total area when streached out, a classification in microns and some sort of flow test. A test involving the bypass threshold and how well it cycles and seals. I know thats a lot to ask, so maybe some engineering test info from the manufacturer might have to be taken for truth unless you can figure some way of confirming what they claim. Again thanks for doing this. There is a guy "AVE" that does alot of power tool testing that might be able to set you up with some ideas for testing, he's pretty smart and seems like a guy who will hook you up.
Absolutely this. If you are going to test filters, making a judgement based upon visual inspection only, is useless. Test the item at the job it is intended to do.
Diezel I don’t know if frame filters are bad or not however I’ve been using them for many years and I’ve never had any problems with them I would like to see a Fram ultra tested against all the other filters to see if it can hold its own or if it’s truly no good,,,I would be interested in finding this out,,, I have also read that Walmart entered into a deal with Wixx filter’s and basically learned as much as they could from that experience and then pulled out and went to Champion laboratories or something like that and basically used everything they learned from Wixx to start making a better super tech brand oil filter,,,folks are saying super tech filters are as good as any other filter at a fraction of the cost I bought one I intend to use on my Toyota Tacoma in the near future for under three dollars.
Great job on your videos. You cover a lot without a bunch of unnecessary fluff and time wasting stuff. How about doing the OEM filters such as MOPAR and Delco etc.
I think the change intervals plays a big role in what filter to buy. I use full synthetic and change it every 2,500 to 3,000 miles since its cheaper right now. I have no issues using lower end filters since the oil doesnt get very dirty before I change it. However, if I was maxing out my oil mileage, then yes, something like K&N would be a must. Great video!
I know this video is almost 1 year old but I just watched for the first time. Very informative with very good detail but the one thing I would have liked to have seen or heard you talk about above more than anything else is the Micron Rating of the filter media. Sure more media area equals a larger area to trap more debris But it's the size of the holes (micron rating) that determines the size of the particles being trapped, smaller micron rating equals smaller debris being traped equals better filtered oil.
Bravo. Bravo. 👏 best TH-cam video I’ve seen in general in a long long time. Speak well! I like what you did here! Be proud and keep it up. Looking at doing K&N filter on Ford 6.7L power stroke, a brand new truck.
Thank you for doing a comparison on the same type of oil filters for the same application, and thank you for sharing your thoughts and great ideas on your videos
I typically use a brand specific oil filter on my vehicles: MOPAR on my Dodge, Motorcraft on my Fords etc. Been changing my and my family’s cars oil for decades. I had to say that the K&N is the only filter I’ve ever had an issue with in the form of a leak. Leaked from the crimped seam at the top. I’ve heard they had a problem with the spot welds leaking at that “nut” that’s on the end too but mine was at the seam. I do like that rubberized grip on the Frams and wished more use it
Should be noted the nut on the k&n gold Is absolutely not designed to tighten the filter it actually warns against it and will cause severe damage to the unit if you use it to install so gasket thickness maybe due to hire oil pressure’s but definitely not for the ability to tighten it easier
I'd like to see you review a Subaru filter (p/n 15208AA15A) used in my new 2020 Outback Onyx. As a long time Wix user I'd like to see how the Subaru filter stacks up against the Wix brand.
I use k&n performance gold on my 32 year old 350 small block with 245,000 miles on it. Change my oil in January. Still have 1,000 miles before changing again.
I got 30,000 miles with the K & N gold and Amsoil signature series 100% motor oil with optimal performance. $6 for the K & N oil filter and $77 dollars for 7 quarts of the Amsoil signature series 100% synthetic motor oil. Do the math. The aforementioned combo is superior.
The two K&N High Performance Gold (HP-1010) oil filters I was just shipped has a plastic inner cylinderical tube, like seen in cheap STP and SuperTech filters. They were also no wrapped in shrink wrap. The two K&N Performance Silver (PS-1010) oil filters still had the steel sheet metal inner cylinders...and did have a shrink wrap cap.
Wtf send that shit back then. I've purchased them and had them not wrapped many times, plastic inner sounds like a repackage scam... Gold is always metal
the whole in the nut on the gold is for a safety pin so the filter doesnt shoot out like a rocket on the track during a blow out and the 1" nut itself is for a quick easy removal
I use the K&N PS SERIES filters in my Toyota which takes the PS-1003 which is very similar to the Honda PS-1004 U used for this vid. For four and change per filter on AMAZON/SMILE...I think it is the SLEEPER in the bunch. I am now down to once a year on O/C as of this past Tuesday. The K&N combined with QS HM 5w-30 makes the '96 Camry purrrrrrr.......smoooo-ooooth... GR8 vid and U could use a LEVEL BOOST on your MIC. GOOD JOB GOD BLESS!!! P.S.-No pun intended but that RED filter media is what put K&N on the map in the first place. LUVIT!!!
You overlooked the fact that although the holes are smaller on the Fram there are more of them, 12 vs 8. So same amount of area on all except the K&N Gold.
I'm not as much interested in the construction as they only have to work for 3-5 thousand miles. I'm more interested in the performance of filtering the oil and maintaining oil flow for proper lubrication . I would enjoy to see a test done on the filters , All filtering used oil mixed well from the same batch. The discharged flow rate and quality of the filtered oil. I've been using Fram filters and Penzoil Traditional oil (non-synthetic) in my 23 yr. old truck with 300,000 miles. Oil comes out non gritty and engine still runs smooth and has not had any internal issues. I had to use an STP filter one time waiting for my Fram filter. Never will I Use an STP filter again.
Basically they will all hold up the same . Any filter with the bypass is what your looking for if you plan on going 10,000 plus before changes . Ive never heard of a filter exploding from too much pressure so outer walls wouldnt make a diff either
The only thing I can think of that could make an oil filter explode if you installed one on a super modified tractor for the "truck and tractor pulls" No car on the road will come close to that so an oil filter exploding on a car is a myth.
I have been searching and there are no videos on the aFe Pro Gaurd D2 oil filter. I would like to see a review of the aFe 44-LF018. I don't think it has a bypass valve. This part number fits my 2011 Subaru Outback 3.6R Limited.
Automotive manufactures keep lowering idle oil pressure and peak oil pressure and volume to increase fuel economy. 20 years ago an engine would have 25-35 psi at idle and 10psi additionally for ever 1000rpms before reaching some bypass pressure between 99psi and 150psi. Many modern designs only have 3-5psi of oil pressure at idle and do not come close to the pressure and volume of older designs. This is the reason for electronically variable oil pumps on say modern BMW and Toyota engines. When working with such meager idle oil pressures flow rules! Something to think about!
Excellent video. However, on my vehicle, I have been using synthetic oil with the FRAM XG3682. Unfortunately, Fram is not producing much of these filters anymore. I was thinking of switching to another brand, similar to the XG-3682. Which brand would you recommend.
You made an assumption that the K&N Gold filter has a lower level of filtration. We don’t know the micron filtration level. BUT we do know packing a filter with more & more pleats reduces flow but will extend the filter change.
the more I watch these,,,, no matter who makes the compare,, y'all do y'all's best ! I'm ONLY USING MOTORCRAFT 820S on MY 1999 Sable, and My 2003 4.6 F150 !!! ,, sticking with Pennzoil Ultra, high mileage , full synthetic !!! n not trying go over 7 thou miles !!!!!!!! EVER !!!!!! on an oil change !!!!! Y'all welcome spend your $ MONEY ! as you wish !! your LIFE !! N Honestly, doubt I've gone over 5 thou Miles !! My Vehicles ! My $$ Both run great !!! did run Motorcraft synthetic blend, on both before Pennzoil switch,, but 118,000 F150,,,,,, 148,000 sable !!! no trouble HAPPY !!!!
Could I use HP-1003 or should I use HP-1002 on my Maruti Suzuki swift 2014 petrol? Please someone help me out. I can't figure it out. Also what is the difference between the two filters?
Most tracks will not allow the use of K and N oil filters on motorcycles if this tells you anything. Repeated engine failures. Something you do not want when on 2 wheels. The wix, napa gold, are the best when it comes to a aftermarket filter.
Fram Ultra XG9837 on my 2002 5.3L at 10k mile intervals. 99.6% efficient @ 20 um 94% @ 10 um 80% @ 5 um Flows: 12 gpm @ 5.6 psid Loading capacity: 26 grams Burst: 380 psi You won't find a better full flow filter on the market. I've cut open more than 50 used Fram filters without a single failure found, and they've consistently provided low particle counts in oil UOAs. Wix XP and K&N both have poor filtration at 99% @ 35 um. ACDelco is 99% @ 30 um but way down on flow. Purolator filters are having media tearing failures left and right and should be avoided like the plague. Standard Wix is 95% @ 20 um and about the same flow as ACDelco.
Any opinion on runing the motorcraft oil filter on a subaru. As the motorcraft made by Purolator & better price and relief valve is in the Front of filter that in my opinion is better in Cold winter start up.
sure would take the fun out of removing filters if they had real nuts right on end of filter to unscrew them. without having to use 20 different filter wrenches
Okay nevermind all those features. I have a Toyota oil filter housing in which the only thing that gets replaced is the element. So which element is the best choice or does it make little difference. I change the oil every 5k.
NEVER install the K&N using the nut. It breaks the spot welds and it will leak. Even if it doesnt leak you will over torque it and it will be hard to get off. All filters should be only hand tightened. The nut is intended for removal only.
Does someone know which filter is better for daily, street racing, engine protection filter? I use Castrol edge extended performance as oil and I drive about 5k miles before an oil change. I can't decide which filter is best between those three: K&N gold, Mobil 1 Extended Performance or FRAM ULTRA SYNTHETIC? What are your suggestions? Thank you
What about the washable K&N oil filter ? Is it good can you review one of those im looking to buy one but want to know about it from a user not some one working for them
Can you please add these two oil filter in your future OIL FILTER Comparison? SuperTech ST9972 Cartridge Oil Filter SuperTech ST3614 3" Spin-on Oil Filter

Voice irritating,talks too fast ,so I gather kN or Napa gold ,wix
Agree, hand tighten the filter. Never leak.

never used it on my K&N oil filters but I like the thought that I could use it
Agreed 👍

every 2500-3k? that's a waste. synthetic oil can go a good deal longer than tha.
Changing modern oil at 2.5 to 3k is just retarded. It shows your total lack of knowledge. Embarrassing
One of the best oil filter videos and in general, very well done in all aspects.

Great video. I usually put a napa gold filter on, but wasn't able to get one in time, so I went with the k&n gold.
Thomas Toy yes, I generally use NAPA GOLD ON MY TWO VEHICLES...
I use the K&N Gold filter for my Porsche 914- nothing but the best for my toy!
Bravo. Bravo. 👏 best TH-cam video I’ve seen in general in a long long time. Speak well! I like what you did here! Be proud and keep it up. Looking at doing K&N filter on Ford 6.7L power stroke, a brand new truck.

I just weighed my Honda OEM filter for my Civic si.Coming in at 184 grams. It says Made in Japan, gotta love parts from Japan! PN 15400-RTA-003

Fram Ultra Synthetic Rocks!
No it doesn't. It just sits under your car getting dirty until you throw it away.
Hey would you mind doing this again but in 2022 since most of these filters have gone through redesigns?
I always buy the white k&n filter it's awesome!!
I got the k&n gold at Wal-Mart because they were sold out of Mobil 1 in my size. It's for my 9 month oci
You overlooked the fact that although the holes are smaller on the Fram there are more of them, 12 vs 8. So same amount of area on all except the K&N Gold.
K&N SILVER LOOKS LIKE A VERY GOOD FILTER YOU CAN BUY THIS FILTER FOR A 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 5.2 FOR FIVE BUCKS AT NAPA....

in another video of someone comparing wix and fram and a few others, he used digital calipers to measure can thickness, fram was .62 and wix .73
@@Filterficial oops, carsntoys
Nice silencers
Just bought a K&N Gold and it didn't come shrink wrapped
I use k&n gold only no problems at all
Have you done Mann Hummel filters? They're OE for a lot of German cars.
I have been searching and there are no videos on the aFe Pro Gaurd D2 oil filter. I would like to see a review of the aFe 44-LF018. I don't think it has a bypass valve. This part number fits my 2011 Subaru Outback 3.6R Limited.
A very good straight forward not to long video.
I prefer the 3/8 adapter that afe filters use I would like to see one of those opened
I have the K & N gold for my 06 RSX😎👌
the fram looks like the best
your joking right
Jonathan Kosyjana it seems the best to me it has the same filter media but has more of it the k&n has a thick shell but that does not matter
Automotive manufactures keep lowering idle oil pressure and peak oil pressure and volume to increase fuel economy. 20 years ago an engine would have 25-35 psi at idle and 10psi additionally for ever 1000rpms before reaching some bypass pressure between 99psi and 150psi. Many modern designs only have 3-5psi of oil pressure at idle and do not come close to the pressure and volume of older designs.

Major D switch to the Purolator Boss filter. It’s better then the Fram XG
JUNK the FRAMS!
Thank you.
Great stuff!
I believe the K&N Gold filter is Viton rubbber seal which is superior to Nitrile.
You made an assumption that the K&N Gold filter has a lower level of filtration. We don’t know the micron filtration level. BUT we do know packing a filter with more & more pleats reduces flow but will extend the filter change.
That’s a great video!
This is the 100,000 th oil filter cut open video on TH-cam. I buy whatever is on sale at Walmart.
And yet you still felt it necessary to make a comment anyway....

Hey,
How about checking a group of harley filters. Harley, twin power, k&n, maxima, ??
I didn’t see the glue pattern holding the materials to the can?
AC-delco,motercraft,moper,Toyota's
Could I use HP-1003 or should I use HP-1002 on my Maruti Suzuki swift 2014 petrol?
Please someone help me out. I can't figure it out. Also what is the difference between the two filters?
Most tracks will not allow the use of K and N oil filters on motorcycles if this tells you anything. Repeated engine failures. Something you do not want when on 2 wheels. The wix, napa gold, are the best when it comes to a aftermarket filter.
I'm curious about the length of each filter element when stretched out. Cool vid!
great superficial look , we need a you tuber who can do some long term tests and more.
Hastings used to have a nut on the bottom also.
Fram Ultra XG9837 on my 2002 5.3L at 10k mile intervals.
99.6% efficient @ 20 um
94% @ 10 um
80% @ 5 um
Flows: 12 gpm @ 5.6 psid
Loading capacity: 26 grams
Burst: 380 psi
You won't find a better full flow filter on the market. I've cut open more than 50 used Fram filters without a single failure found, and they've consistently provided low particle counts in oil UOAs.
Wix XP and K&N both have poor filtration at 99% @ 35 um. ACDelco is 99% @ 30 um but way down on flow. Purolator filters are having media tearing failures left and right and should be avoided like the plague. Standard Wix is 95% @ 20 um and about the same flow as ACDelco.
Any opinion on runing the motorcraft oil filter on a subaru.
As the motorcraft made by Purolator & better price and relief valve is in the Front of filter that in my opinion is better in Cold winter start up.
Good stuff !
please review Pennzoil ultra performance and regular. As well as Mobil 1 annual protection and regular. Thanks great video btw
The Pennzoil filters are simply the Purolator One and Purolator Classic respectively. Good filters though.
sure would take the fun out of removing filters if they had real nuts right on end of filter to unscrew them. without having to use 20 different filter wrenches
*Purolator BOSS! FOR THE WIN!*
...done! I'm gone!
Don't forget Amsoil and Donaldson filters.
donaldson is for diesel.. i rather use Cat filter
Have you done any further testing, like filter life and comparisons after use?
Also I had a look at a few KN filters today and it seems all aren’t sealed, only 1 particularly model
Can you do AMS Oil Filter?
lilde66 Wix is the manufacturer for AMSOIL filter. So the Wix XP is the one you want to look at.
they have the 1" nut on them for easier removal.
Okay nevermind all those features. I have a Toyota oil filter housing in which the only thing that gets replaced is the element. So which element is the best choice or does it make little difference. I change the oil every 5k.
Just saw the K&N filters on Amazon for 5.50. I'll be picking that up.
I'm assuming if your buying k&n, the company knows you care about keeping up vehical maintenance . They can afford to keep it high flow.
Well ... I'd like to see some oil filters for H-D shovel heads , cut open !
doncarlo5 do you have the in tank filter?
@@danfecke no, on the FXR models the oil filter is positioned just behind the gearbox, just in front of the rear wheel ...
NEVER install the K&N using the nut. It breaks the spot welds and it will leak. Even if it doesnt leak you will over torque it and it will be hard to get off. All filters should be only hand tightened. The nut is intended for removal only.
K&N silver or Bosch premium? Which one will handle 7500 miles?
Does someone know which filter is better for daily, street racing, engine protection filter? I use Castrol edge extended performance as oil and I drive about 5k miles before an oil change. I can't decide which filter is best between those three: K&N gold, Mobil 1 Extended Performance or FRAM ULTRA SYNTHETIC? What are your suggestions? Thank you
I use Castrol edge and K&N gold filters in my 350z! 105k miles and abused daily! I change my oil every 1k-1.5k.
you change your oil every 1k? what a waste of good oil, you should change it every 5000 at least
What about the washable K&N oil filter ? Is it good can you review one of those im looking to buy one but want to know about it from a user not some one working for them
Arent K&N motorcycle oilfilters reboxed HiFlo filters?
Ive only had one oil filter leak on me. It was a K&N white with the wrenchtop
was it the filter or the way you installed it? You probably had it too loose or too tight.
@@235buz I've been changing oil im my cars for 30yrs. This happened maybe 7 yrs ago
The only thing that interests me is the element since our vehicle does not use a spin-on canister.
