VP Racing 20,000 Mile Premium Full Synthetic Oil Filter, VP253, Fits Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, Jeep, Eagle

The media could not be loaded. I bought this VP Racing VP2876 Premium Synthetic Oil Filter for my 2021 Mazda 3 Hatchback.The Oil Filter is made by Champion Laboratories which makes automotive filters. The oil filter is Made in USA! 🇺🇸 It has an silicone anti-drain back valve and many holes 🕳 compared to an OEM Mazda Oil Filter. The pleats have shielding on them which is something you don’t find on a cheaper oil filter. Overall It’s seems well constructed.This oil filter claims it can go 1 year or 20,000 oil change intervals. However, that’s something I don’t recommend simply because, oil changes are cheap and an engine replacement costs thousands.VERDICT: High Quality Oil Filter, Made in USA by Champion Laboratories is always good! Is it worth the premium price tag? Perhaps not, and that’s why it’s one star off for me. If it was, $10 then it would be a great deal. Since it looks better than the Mobil 1 108-A Oil Filter.

The best quality constructed oil filter I’ve ever seen and it’s made in the USA which is even better!! The only filter I’ve seen of equal quality is perhaps an Amsoil one and my guess is they are both made by the same manufacturer. Take a peak when you get yours on the inside…bet you don’t see that in even the most expensive store bought brand. Seriously, I’m blown away by the quality and to me for an oil filter I’m willing to spend what this costs as it’s top-of-the-line! The inner filter housing is just as stout as the outside! Silicone anti-drainback valve is top tier…I’m a car mechanical nerd. And yes the synthetic filter media has an amazing filtration level with excellent flow rates going through it. This is a clear winner over anything else on Amazon or at a store. 5 stars easily, blown away by the quality and that’s not easily done for me. Honda CRV is the vehicle it’s going in and hopefully they will make one for the 4Runner soon as well.

Doing what it's intended to do

I've used Amsoil and Royal Purple oil filters since I bought my car. They've both been out of stock for many months at this point. I did a bunch of research and found out that this filter is made by the same manufacturer as Royal Purple and K&N. The RP and VP have synthetic media though where as the K&N doesn't. This filter is an identical match to Royal Purple. Quality filters cost money. Yes this filter is about $5 more than average but for $5 more you're getting as good as a filter as possible. If you balk at $15 to protect your engine than you might as well let Tire Kingdom put on a junk $2 filter and hope for the best.

I see feedback on how black the oil is after one change,but all oil is black after so many miles and had nothing to do with filtration, goes to show how much people don't know about how the combustion engine works let alone an oil filter,if u use oil like amsoil sig series u can go the full 20k miles and still get top protection,again the oil filter has nothing to do with coloration regardless of mileage!That's just stupid!

Contrary to its claims of being able to filter 2 oil changes,(or something to that effect), after only 2500 miles my oil is just as black as other filters at the same interval. I would NOT use this filter for more than one oil change!

Yep, it'll does what it's supposed to do. Changed my Raptor oil and used this filter. No issues so far.

This oil filter is one of the best flowing filters on the market with a micron rating of 99% at 20 microns so even this is has good oil flow that doesn’t come at the price of sub par filtration yeah it’s on the expensive side but it’s a whole lot cheaper than replacing an engine due to damage caused by using bad oil filters
