Hi, I just bought a 2018 Malibu 2.0 and want to flush the fluids out and have it nice and running like new. I found an oil filter in the box in the trunk for my vehicle and I just need the oil I guess but I use this:

and not sure if it is going to be ok to use any filter? Or do I go with the filters on the page, one of them is wix(never heard of that), should I just toss the filter, I think it is some generic brand, or any recommendations? Thanks.

Wix, Purolator and ACDelco's are the best. Royal Purple's filters are way too expensive.

Stay away from Frams, unless you buy the high-end, expensive ones. K&N's are OK. too.

With a turbocharger on your 2.0L, you need to use the best motor oil and oil filters possible.
