Default What kind of oil filter do you use?
Just kind of curious what oil filters people are using in their Volvos.

I've been using WIX filters in mine, or CarQuest Premium which is also a WIX. How about you?

For 850, I use the OEM MANN filter only. MANN filter has built-in check valve, but some aftermarket filters also have check valves.

For my S60 I stick with Mahle filters that I get from FCP.

Purolator in the 745. It's the Z9/ Ford fitment. Fits right on a turbo redblock. Big filter and cheap due to sher volume of units produced.

Regards, Andrew.

I use only the Volvo filters on my Volvo's and even my Mustang.

But do you have the metal screw on filter?
