Anyone remember Lee Maxi Filter air filters decades ago? Anyone know if those were champ labs too? 2019 VW Jetta S 6MT OCI#2 7378mi-MOTUL Specific VW508.00+VW Service Filter; '17 Subaru Crosstrek CVT OC#8 60864mi-Subaru Idemitsu 0W20 + SOA Filter

Thank You Sorry - Amsoil 15w50 went into the sump, and a Fram Ultra XG5 . M1-302 and Amsoil 15w50 was what I used. I have a stash of both M1 and Fram Ultra filters.
