Oil Filter delisted
I've always used 14461 filters. Today I went to get one and couldn't find one at Canadian Tire. Their chart now recommends 3593A, a much shorter filter.
I went to Purolator's web site and they recommend 14459 while Quaker State web site recommends 14612. What the heck would you do?

Re: Oil Filter delisted
3593a has always been the recommended filter for the SVX. It's also the same filter we used on the Justy.

Re: Oil Filter delisted
I think I've used 3593As on every Subaru I've owned.

Re: Oil Filter delisted
You can also buy K&N HP-4001 off their ebay store. It is a little more expensive but has the same high efficiency filter material as the Mobil 1 oil filters. I am considering doing extended OCIs with a combination of this filter and Mobil 1 High Mileage Oil.

Re: Oil Filter delisted
many companies, i especially know of purolator because that's the brand at work, are trying to decrease the number of filters they carry by eliminating the ones that have different filter capacities but the same threads/seal size. our stock of filters has decreased by half, which is good, but most of the new filters are half the size of the older ones, which is bad.

Re: Oil Filter delisted
Well I now remember why I was using a 14461. It's the equivalent to the Purolator L30165.
Just came back from Canadian Tire and the have delisted all Purolator filters and they don't have an equivalent in Mobile 1, Fram regular, Fram High Milage, Quaker State or their house brand Motomaster. So i grabbed a PH3593A which is slightly larger than the 44612. Next time I plan an oil change I'll have to shop in advance for my filter.

Re: Oil Filter delisted
Think I had a senior moment yesterday.
The 14461 is not the equal of the L30165. It's just larger (taller)than the 3593A.

Re: Oil Filter delisted
The K&N HP-4001 is as large as the L30165 but with a higher efficiency filter material.

fram/motomaster/mobile 1, quakerstate and i think some others too I use NAPA filters which are made by WIX (sp?) which are better and cost less than fram ones.

Looks like M1 and K&N are made by Champion Labs.
