The Best Mopar Oil Filters

The oil that runs through your factory engine has to be clean, or else it can't do its job right. There's one problem, though. Even the freshest motor oil still contains impurities. If those were to make their way into your engine, they'd collect and start to gum up the works. That's why your vehicle came with an oil filter in place.

How an Oil Filter Works

The oil filter strains out the pollutants before the motor oil heads to your engine. Since the oil also collects contaminants that are gathering in your engine, the filter then removes them from the oil before it goes on another trip. Eventually, though, even the highest quality oil filter will get clogged or degrade. That can lead to engine trouble.

Why You Need to Change Your Oil Filter

If you see any of the following signs, you need to check the condition of your oil filter:

• The low oil pressure indicator light comes on
• Sputtering engine
• Poor engine performance
• Dark smoke from the exhaust
• Metallic engine noises

While you want to make sure to change your oil filter on a regular schedule to avoid problems, you don't need to switch in a new one every time you change your oil. Every other oil change should do, though you'll want to check your owner's manual to be sure. When it is time to replace your oil filter, insist on a genuine Mopar oil filter. They're the only ones guaranteed to fit your engine, which is essential in order to maintain a secure gasket seal.
