I picked up a few oil filters for my 2013 Jeep JK with the Pentastar 3.6L V6. Since this is a new vehicle for me, I wanted to take a look a the oil filters available to help decide what I want to use.
1. Mopar OEM
2. Purolator Classic L36135
3. Purolator PureONE PL36135
4. Wix 57526
A few photos in case anyone else is interested.
A quick look at the filters shows two families of filters.
1. the Mopar and Wix are made in USA and the Purolator Classic and PureONE are made in South Korea with identical plastic endcaps but with different filter media, of course, with the blue PureONE media.
2. The Mopar and Wix seem to be the same filter with identical looking filter media, plastic endcaps with mold marks and lettering, similar lot numbers (40HIX vs 40IIG) so the Mopar is likely made by Wix.
I think I will be using the PureONE (after using all four of these.
