The Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filter offers you the following benefits:
Cleaner oil.
Longer filter life.
Reduced potential for filter failure due to pressure build-up.
Reduced potential for filter failure due to repeated pressure surges at start-up.
Improved oil flow.
Easier filter removal after use.
Taking good care of your engine, including keeping the oil well-filtered, will make your engine last longer and perform better. If you want the best protection available for your engine, and you want your car to last a long time, use the Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filter and use Mobil 1 motor oil.
No. Most conventional oil filters use a filter medium that is made of cellulose – typically wood fiber – and polyester fibers. Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filters combines a mixture of synthetic micro fibers and natural fibers to produce the most efficient oil filter on the market. The synthetic components of Mobil 1 motor oil are chemically synthesized liquids.
The synthetic fibers in Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filters yield the following key benefits:
A much more efficient filter, removing more particles per pass through the filter than conventional filter media.
Less resistance to oil flow, reducing the potential for the filter to restrict the flow of oil to your engine.
A larger surface area to trap more contaminant particles, allowing the longer service intervals.
Absolutely. We recommend that you use Mobil 1 motor oil to get maximum protection for your engine, but the Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filter is fully compatible with conventional oils.
ExxonMobil does offer a very high-quality oil filter that can be used with any motor oil, but it is an especially appropriate companion to Mobil 1. Mobil 1 Extended Performance Oil Filters contain synthetic fibers instead of the typical cellulose filter media. With a 99.2 percent efficiency rating (under SAE J1858 Multi-Pass Efficiency Test), the Mobil 1 filter is much more efficient than a typical oil filter, removing more particles per pass through the filter. In addition, the synthetic fibers in the Mobil 1 filter have less resistance to oil flow, reducing the potential for the filter to restrict the flow of oil to your engine.
