Filtration Performance

WIX 51516 is built to trap dirt and contaminants during everyday driving and harsher service such as stop-and-go traffic, short trips, dirt roads, construction zones, and interstate use.

Installation Notes

Use the vehicle’s OE oil change interval and verify thread size, gasket sealing surface, and filter clearance before installation. The flexible silicone anti-drainback valve is used where applicable to help protect against dry starts after extended shutdown or longer service intervals. For Ford F-150, Ford Ranger, and Mazda CX-9 applications, confirm the exact engine and filter specification against the vehicle catalog before service.

Quality Assurance

WIX oil filters are built for OE-style service intervals and are tested to support filtration performance under normal and severe driving conditions. Published laboratory data references ISO 4548 testing, including high dirt-holding capacity and 99% efficiency at 23 microns on related WIX test samples.
