Mazda OEM oil filter is the best, bar none.

And define best oil???? Best price, Longest lasting, best lubrication, best base stock, best viscosity for where you drive???

Castrol GTX is the most commonly used.

Details will always give you better answer... the more glittering generalities you use (like best); means you leave a lot of room for reader assumption.

Just did an oil change today. Went to Mazda and bought an oil filter and use Castrol GTX 10W30. Everything is running just fine. It's still pretty cold, but next oil change I do in the summer I will probably switch to 20W50.

Mobil 1 10-30w extended performance w/ bosche oil filter. I have that oil stock piled in my garage... but i just recently picked up a mobil 1 extended performance oil filter that i will install on my next oil change. I feel like i may have lost some power tho, ever since my ECU blew, i replaced it but the car doesnt seem as fast as once before. What kinda oil does the Mazda full circle service use? The previous owner always had that done to the 7. I cant remember, i had the car for a couple years now and it sat for about 1 year after i bought it.
