I dont want to start a debate or an arguement, i have seen this beat to death on the forum before....However, My opinion is simple... change your oil regularly and do it hot. Hot gets the viscosity to a point where more drains out and any build up is suspended in the oil not sitting in the engine. As for the brand of filter....I would much rather discuss the frequency and oil type and brand than who makes the filter. Change the oil, use the correct oil, and do the job well, if you end up using a different brand of filter everytime, it is still far better than not doing the oil or doing it right.
