OEM Mopar Oil Filters

Your oil filter plays an important role. That's to remove contaminants from the motor oil and keep it fresh, clean, and viscous. You see, even the newest motor oil still contains impurities that made it through the refining process. If those made their way into the engine, they could gather and cause problems.

What an Oil Filter Does

Your oil filter captures those pollutants before the oil heads off to lubricate the many moving engine-parts. Since your engine can also contain impurities, the oil grabs them as it works its way through. The filter also traps those as the oil cycles through, allowing your engine to run at peak efficiency.

Sadly, even the best oil filter will either get too clogged up or degraded to continue performing as intended. When that happens, you need to replace it as soon as possible in order to keep your engine running right.

How to Spot a Failing Oil Filter

Signs that your oil filter is going bad include:

• Your dashboard light comes on
• The engine starts sputtering
• You notice reduced engine performance
• There's dark smoke coming from the exhaust
• You hear metallic noises coming from the engine

Trust Genuine OEM Oil Filters to Perform Best

If you're not experiencing any of these symptoms, check your owner's manual for your recommended maintenance schedule. Don't make the mistake of using just any oil filter when you do replace your old one, though. Only an oil filter made by your manufacturer is guaranteed to be compatible with your engine. That's important, since you want to be sure that you get a good gasket seal to prevent leaks or worse. Find yours by searching our online auto parts catalog by make, model, and year.
