I just recently bought a 2007 TL-S and I'd like to get an oil change. Can someone recommend what type of oil I should use? Some people say to use royal purple and some say to use mobile 1...I'd just like to hear some opinions!! And when it comes to oil filters, does it make a difference which one I have? Thanks!!

 

Search, there has to be several hundred threads on this exact same topic.

 

X2 Hundreds of threads on this. I need to keep a set of links saved on here for reference.

I've written a lot on the topic of what I believe to be the best and why.

 

The cheapest oil/filter combo at the local auto parts store will be absolutely great for your car.

 

I use Mobile 1 ($21. for 5Q's at Walmart) and Fram filter. I have a 06 with 97K. works great for me.

 

yeah i tried searching before i put up the post but i cant seem to find anything...if u guys can link me id appreciate it!!

 

thanks...i'll give it a shot!

 

I'll write up something tomorrow. Basically any oil will be fine. If you want the "best" I suggest Redline 5w-30. There's nothing better out there for cleanliness and wear protection.

 

FYI, Fram filters are crap. Mobil 1 filter, Napa gold, or OEM Acura is what id use.

 

Royal Purple and Amsoil EAO filters are the best out there.

 

Mobil 1 5w-20 synthetic oil with the mobil 110 filter works fine for me

 

i used Mobil1 5w-20 synthetic oil and Fram oil filter

 

btw, walmart sell it for cheap

 

You can add Donaldson to that list, they make the EAO filters, and the media that is used in the Royal Purple filters.

 

Yep. I just don't think Donaldson actually makes a car application but who knows, maybe they do now.
