September 22, 2017
I got an oil change nearly 1500 miles ago, my car loves to use oil (It's a Saturn, they have a nice history of doing so) and I haven't had to add ANY at all. Even on longer trips which just ate up oil, Valvoline placed my car on a diet. I will definitely use this one again.200,xxx miles
Valvoline has a great Max life product line
September 10, 2017
very slickworked well on my 100 k motorhave used on other cars with good resultsit works well to add life to old seals on motors over 100kdoes not work divine miracles on servery worn engines
Great price and it's Valvoline!
August 2, 2017
Great price and it's Valvoline! My local auto parts store has this same oil nearly double the price at 29.99. As long as Amazon has this at this price point (16.99) I'll continue to purchase it.
Works well with G35
July 3, 2017
Works great with my 6MT Infiniti G35 coupe. No strange noises or engine vibrations after switching to Valvoline from Mobil 1
Great price point
June 18, 2017
Have been using this oil for sometime now and have not had any issues. Will usually run this stuff 6k miles before changing. For the price point you can't go wrong. Will definitely be buying from here again!
It's a great buy for the money

Spend a little more money on better quality
June 18, 2017
This product seems slightly heavier than my precious oil filter and fit perfect for my vehicle. Spend a little more money on better quality. Happy with purchase and would definitely buy again.
Fits my 2008 Dodge Caravan perfectly.
May 28, 2017
Love Bosch quality but was concerned Amazon might not match up the right parts for my model / year car based on some reviews. Not am issue. Perfect March. Will def buy from again!
better than Fram
February 3, 2016
great high quality oil filter
Bosch is good stuff & has been for years
This filter keeps my oil noticeably cleaner
The best way to tell a quality filter is it's weight, the heaver the filter the more filtering is in it & the thicker the steel case.
This is waaay heaver than a Fram
made in USA
December 24, 2015
I bought K & N only to find out they are now made in China or Mexico and leak like sives at the rubber gasket. Fool old Amazon made it good of course and I tried these Bosch. Heavy, ridgid, with a anti leak back valve so you don't have dry starts. Good product at a good price.
Good filter
March 1, 2014
Did some research and found this filter highly recommended. This 3330 is marked "Made in USA". I've read that that are made by Purolator and the same as a PureONE filter. Works for me.

What a steal of a price!!!
April 12, 2017
Fantastic oil filter for my Ford expedition! This oil filter is a high quality product at a fantastic price. amazon's price is even less than Walmart's price. I always stock up on the filters from amazon! A must buy if you do your own oil changes!
I pretty much buy them in bulk
April 24, 2016
Since I've got three vehicles that use the same oil filter, I pretty much buy them in bulk.

The Motorcraft filters are always solid, especially with their silicone drainback valve that to keep oil from draining back into the pan for modular motors. (Something that some brands lack!!!)
Heavy sturdy oil filter
November 8, 2015
I installed this on my Mazda 6s wagon and it fits perfectly. According to the good reviews here, it seems to be a good filter, time will tell but it feels heavy and well built. Mazda 6s V6 3.0l has in fact a Ford engine, hence the fit. As I will do my own oil change on this car, I'm sure I'll buy again this filter if it holds on like it should.
OEM Filter works great on Fusion/Milan. This is the best deal you will find on this OEM filter.
September 18, 2015
I use this filter for a 2006 Mercury Milan, and it works perfectly. Obviously, this is an OEM filter, so it should work as Ford intended. It has an anti-drainback design, which keeps some oil in the filter to reduce stress on the engine when starting. Many other brands may not have this feature! From all the places I looked, Amazon had the best prices, so it was a no-brainer for me.

Pros:
-OEM
-Anti-Drainback Design

Cons: The ridges on the back side work fine most of the time, but the filter becomes pretty slippery (to tighten) when it gets oil on it.
Great filter for my truck
August 22, 2015
Great filter for my truck. Silicone ADV and threaded side bypass with above average filtration, all for cheaper than even the "bargain" oil filters, while filtering as well as those costing 3x as much.

Wish Motorcraft made filters for my Toyota, I would use them on that too.
Amazon makes it easy to get a few shipped at a time to have some extras available.

Best oil in my book
December 31, 2015
I have been doing my own oil changes for years. I have an 2005 Chevy Malibu, with 220K miles on it and still going strong. I've bounced around different oils, generally just using whatever was the most cost effective at the time, with no real concern for brand. However recently I've noticed a serious difference between this and those other conventional oils that I was using. It started with a rough idle that was primarily caused by a ignition coil pack, however after repairing that I noticed the issue, although lessened drastically, was still there a bit, I decided that although I was not quite to the 4K mileage mark, I needed to do an oil change. Oil change done, and the rough idle has gone away. Coincidence? I don't believe so.Regardless, I am very impressed with this product so far. I also note as others have done, the price on amazon tends to fluctuate, it will go up to around $30 for awhile, then drop to around $18. With prime shipping that is a very good deal. When the price goes higher, I price shop around. Today I found it at Wal-mart locally for $17.74+tax. I bought two just in case. Like others on here, I would recommend putting this on your wish list and waiting for it to drop again, when it does stock up.

No leaks, no problems, seem to fit fine. 5 stars means "I love it" and I can't really say that I do as it is just an oil filter, but I would buy again for the price.
Does not fit!
June 23, 2015
This is listed by Bosch,Amazon and most auto parts stores as being compatible with Mazda 2.0L Skyctiv engine.
It is NOT, the threads on this filter are 3/4x16 standard. The Mazda has Metric threads M20x1.5 it will not fit.
The proper filter for the 2.0L Skyactiv is the Bosch 3300.
Good basic filter
April 8, 2014
I'll probably upgrade to the next level up next time around. That brings me to the knock - why is it so darn hard to determine which filter to get between the 3 that Bosch offers. I'm not one to throw money into the pot thinking that I'll get a higher quality product. In this case for a modest increase ($3-5 dollars as I recall) the mid-range does a better filtering job (at least according to the side of the box). No where on the Bosch website, etc. ON THE BOX. OK, I get that I'm buying it online and all that, but c'mon.

Did not fit 2005 Mazda 6 s with the 3.0L V6. I'm sure the filter is great but, the Fit Check button said YES it would fit. The filter is too wide and will not go up into the space provided. The original filter is about 3/4 in thinner in diam. Just letting everyone know. :)

NOT DEXOS oil
June 24, 2017
This oil is priced great at 17 bucks for 5qt but the pictures of the product were not what I received. The highest spec on the 5w30 oil is GF-5 it is NOT DEXOS spec. At least what I got in the mail was not. Unfortunately I have 2 late model GM vehicles which spec dexos and I would be concerned about warranty issues not using it. Gave the oil to my father in-law to use on his vehicles.

There was a dent on the top side of the filter
Several have been leaky
February 10, 2016
The Motorcraft filters are decently made and are really the only good option for Ford's 4.6 V8 engines which is why I continue to use them. That said, I've had issues with several of these. My daughter drives a 2007 Explorer with the Modular V8 and I change her oil and filter every 6000ish miles with the Motorcraft 5W-20 semi-synthetic and the FL820S filter. I check for leftover gasket and torque this filter to Ford Service Manual specifications every single time I change her oil, and every single FL820S I've used has leaked from the seam after a few days. Small leak, but it's still a leak. I've tried other filters temporarily and those have not leaked at all. I've witnessed the same phenomenon with my neighbor's F150 as well. I can't return filters with oil in them so I'm stuck using them. If they weren't the best filter to be using with the 4.6 V8, I would switch to something else. But I'm willing to stick with them and deal with the leaking since they're designed for this engine and haven't given me any issues otherwise.

Bad seal
July 22, 2016
So I bought this thinking Bosch was a higher quality product and after 5000 miles, the seal started leaking really bad and just about locked my engine up after draining three quarts in one day. I checked the tightness of the filter and it was fine.
I read online about ten years ago someone shared the same story. If we had been on a road trip, this would have ruined my engine
NOPE
June 25, 2015
the box didnt say filtech like the one in the ad and i didnt see an anti drainback valve so i returned them
Not so good for Toyota 22RE 4cyl
January 8, 2015
I put this on my 92 Toyota P/U 22RE 4cyl. Every morning it would crank over funny and take longer to start until the oil pressure came up. These engines have a timing chain tensioner that is activated by oil pressure, and you have to use a filter with an anti-drainback valve in it. I don't know if I got a defective oil filter or what, but when I went back to the fram filter this problem went away completely.
