Detailed Description of Wix 57530 Engine Oil Filter

The Wix 57530 engine oil filter is a Class C, light-duty filter designed specifically for Suzuki vehicles including the Grand Vitara, SX4, and SX4 Crossover. Its cellulose media effectively traps particles down to 21 microns, helping to protect engine components from wear caused by contaminants. The anti-drain back valve prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, reducing dry starts and ensuring immediate oil flow at startup. The bypass relief valve activates at 19 psi to maintain oil circulation even if the filter becomes clogged, protecting the engine from oil starvation. With a flow rate of 7 to 9 gallons per minute, this filter supports consistent oil delivery under normal operating conditions. The spin-on design and standard 3/4-16 thread size make installation and replacement straightforward for maintenance professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.
