They help but it's not quite the same unless you have a really high end car.

It does to some extent, but those subframes are mounted to the body a LOT more rigidly than the body of a truck is to its frame.

Already an oil change video out for it. I’m surprised it’s not a canister filter…haven’t seen a Lexus with a screw on filter in a long time

WOW. No gloves, oil on the hood and all over the garage floor? WOW!

Have you ever watched anybody change oil or changed oil yourself? Most mechanics don't wear gloves, and he has oil on the floor because he cut the filter open to show the interior in the video...a used filter is full of oil...

Thats true, I always wear gloves though. I can't stand even a small break in mine and change them for a pinprick.

Sure have and my hands always stay nice and clean. Only a dumba$$ would spill oil on their bare garage floor. Just saying…

50 bucks. He comes back in another video with something that he can put on the ground to protect the floor. And he promotes it.

The whole point was to cut the filter up and show it, oil just cleans off the floor. No big deal.

Like Jill said he is also selling Amsoil. Amsoil does make great filters, I won’t use their oil because of the zealotry. If people are zealots of a product, I avoid it.

I had no idea Amsoil had some sort of zealotry attached to their oil lol. Does Royal Purple or Lucas have something similar?

I understand why he cut the filter just wouldn’t pour oil on my garage floor.

Oh yes, not to the same level as Amsoil though.
