All about oil
This site answers one question as exactly as it can be answered: which oil filter does your vehicle take, and what goes back in with it. Every figure on a vehicle page comes from the manufacturer's own documentation for that model year — an owner's manual, a service bulletin or a published capacity chart — not from a parts-store lookup.
How the data is made
Three rules decide what appears on a page.
- Two independent sources, or nothing. A part number or a specification needs manufacturer documentation plus a second source that agrees. A single aggregator is not a source: aggregators are least reliable exactly where the answer is hardest.
- A blank beats a guess. Where the sources conflict, or where a manufacturer's own books disagree across years, the field is left empty and the page says what is unresolved. You will never see "N/A" used to fill a gap, and you will never see a figure averaged out of two that disagreed.
- The model year decides, not the engine badge. Manufacturers change oil grades and capacities mid-life without renaming anything. Where that happened, the span is split at the year it changed and both answers are published against the years they apply to.
Where one vehicle genuinely has two correct answers — a filter that depends on which housing the car was built with, or an engine sold in two states of tune that take different oil — both are shown, with the physical mark that tells them apart. Picking one and hoping would be wrong half the time.

If you are looking something up, go straight to browse by make. If you want to understand what you are reading:
- What the numbers on the bottle mean — why 0W-20 and 5W-20 are not interchangeable in the direction you are hoping, and when the grade is not the whole specification.
- Cartridge or spin-on? — why the answer is about your engine rather than your car's age, and what changes in the driveway.
- How often, really? — what oil-life monitors actually count, and why "severe service" describes more ordinary driving than people expect.
- The grades that quietly changed — a worked example of the mid-life changes described above.
Whatever you find here, the last word belongs to the owner's manual in your glovebox. This site exists to tell you what that manual says, and to be honest about the cases where nobody has published an answer at all.
