OE Mopar Oil Filters

Your oil filter plays an important role when it comes to keeping your engine free of pollutants that can collect and cause trouble.

How it does that is simple. The oil pump pushes oil into the filter's fibers, which collect any contaminants that remained in the motor oil after the refining process. Since the oil also collects any impurities that have gathered in the engine on its way through, the filter removes those as well before the oil returns to lubricate the moving parts. This helps to keep your engine oil clean and viscous, with your engine performance benefitting.

Even the highest quality oil filter won't last forever, though. It will eventually degrade with age, though it's more likely to get too blocked up with particulates first. When that happens, your engine can't work as efficiently. That's not good.

Learn to Spot a Bad Oil Filter

Fortunately, the signs of a failing oil filter are numerous and easy to spot. They include:

• Dirty smoke coming from the exhaust
• Your engine begins to sputter
• Diminished engine performance
• There are metallic noises coming from the engine
• Your dashboard warning light comes on
