I have read that Purolators are the best for the money. That is what have run in my last two cars, and have had no probs.
I have heard bad things about Frams. One problem i have with them, is when You take the old one off, the damn gasket always seems to stay on. |

Baldwin also makes a very good oil filter. B33 for the Yaris.
In my unfortunate ignorance I used Fram's for years in my "domestic" vehicle. Eventually I got tappet noise and tried changing oil/filters more often, tried a high detergent additive, tried a Pennzoil filter (crap, too)--all to no avail. I put a Baldwin on it and the tappet noise went away on my next drive. I'm a believer. |

Wix is one of the best from what i have read. Purolator PureONE and Mobil 1 filters are really good as well.
they use good filter media, and have actual metal end caps and valves, where as fram uses plastic/cardboard. i changed out the breakin oil with Pennzoil Platinum and a mobile 1 filter about 2 weeks ago but have been using m1 filters for about 8 years now. my escorts engine looked new after 90K+ miles. anyone have air filter numbers. i am in need of that info too. as i am staring down the barrel of a VOLCANIC eruption

Also, I notice the Toyota filters have an O ring vs. the flat rings the aftermarket brands have.Must be for a reason, I've noticed this on dealer Hyundai filters too. The Thai filters also have some kinda lube on them under the nice plastic wrapper that keeps junk out of the filter. Makes the dealer happy too to see a" Genuine Toyota Part" too. ![]() I've used Purolator PureOne. I like the IROC blue paintjob.....

Anybody have a cross reference to a compatible AC Delco part for the Yaris- I know GID might!

Same company may even make filters for AC-Delco and STP, but there's been a redesign on the AC-Delco...different shade of blue, plastic inner tube, etc... |

Now, I dont like that leaf spring on the purolator. You will be opening that bypass all the time in the winter up north if you car is not garaged. As an engineer I would prefer to see a coil spring or better yet an independant bypass valve assembly

Looking at a WIX box, a safety by-pass valve assy sits just above the silicone A.D.B. valve, and a steel coil spring on top of the upper metal end cap. |
