NAPA Gold filters are made by Wix, even use the same numbering system - and a lot easier to find that actual Wix filters.

Get a K&N HP-1007. It's not the cheapest filter, however it always scores at or near the top on oil filter tests and it's why I've used them on all my vehicles since 1996.

I used to use them when they were American-made, but once they went to Mexico, the quality began to suffer, so I went back to Wix.

But it is much better to get parts made in Mexico than crap parts mace in china....USA vehicles have had tons of parts made in Mexico for decades......just sayin.....anything made in china is usually chitty...
