Originally Posted By: slacktide_bitog I like the P1 because of the textured grip. Filters made in 2015 shouldn't tear because they redesigned it (look for date code FxxG...) the G signifies 2015. Thanks for the information. I still have 2 of the Purolator Classic and doesn't know what to do...

Hi every one. Car is 95 Camry with almost 150k miles, use Valvoline MaxLife 10W-30 Synthetic Blend or Mobil Super High Mileage. Oil and filter change every 5000 miles. I was plan to use Purolator Classic or PureONE Oil FIlters but after I saw numerous people are reporting tears across a range...

Originally Posted By: zuluplus30 Maxlife is fine in your application for at least 5k, more like 7-9k. How much is it leaking? Wow, at least 5k, more like 7-9k. I didn't know the oil can last that long. I just check my manual, it shows schedule A change oil and filter every 3750 miles...

I loose about 1 qt every 2000 miles, leak / leak and burn

Thank you. That's great idea.

Originally Posted By: BigD1 How many miles on the current fill of MaxLife? I would go through two oil changes with the Maxlife before I would switch to something else. No Mobil Super High Mileage will not work any better than MaxLife. At least it did not for me. From UOA's that I have seen...

Originally Posted By: Nick1994 Check if it's the valve cover gasket leaking, look around it. I just replaced my Camry 2.2L's valve cover gasket last week. Gasket cost $20 and it took 30 minutes to replace. valve cover gasket already replaced. Thank you for your time and writing the detail...

Hello everyone, this is my first post here and I would like some opinions on which oils are better for engine leaking/burning oil? My car is 95 Camry 2.2L LE Auto, has 147K miles on it. Owners Manual shows should use 10W-30, that's what I have been using. I am using valvoline maxlife synthetic...
