I am from Ct. Have a 2010 Aveo 5, Looking for a mobil 1 oil filter to put on it?

Go with 57674 WIX filter. :D Otherwise if you're set on what Mobil 1 has to offer, then here are their recommendations for your car straight from their website (http://www.mobiloil.com):
Current Vehicle:
Year: 2010
Make: Chevrolet
Model: Aveo5
Engine Type: 4cyl. 1.6Liter Naturally Aspirated
Filter matches for the vehicle you selected:
Champion Model P981
Fram Model (and there was no number in this spot, so I'm guessing there isn't one).
When I searched for your Year/Model vehicle there, I tried changing the mileage/level of protection desired options to see what it would recommend, and it recommends all kinds of different oil options and stuff, but down at the bottom it says "Special Filter Not Required. For recommended filter for your vehicle click here" and the info above is what it shows in a pop-up page...
hope this helps.
P.S. I'd go with the WIX filter... And too bad that since they're using cartridge filter now there isn't one available from AMSOil themselves...
Admins, could you please move this discussion to the appropriate topic/section? :D Thanks ahead.

i can't think of the brand i always end up with, but the selection for the filter is sparse on the ecotec engine.
The filter is a cartridge element. I don't think you will find much difference in quality, but you will find variation in pricing.

the 07 had a factory sunglass holder where a grab handle would be mountedQuote:

WHATS WITH THAT?
Just to clarify, in 04-08 Aveo5 there is a parking pass holder in the driver's door just in front of the door handle, as in the attached picture. (on the right of the picture)
And where the "panic" handle is on the other seating positions, driver's position has a sunglass holder (also attached below). This image should be an animation
(Got both off of Google)
:D I'm sure you can just order the sunglass holder online for an older model and put it in. It's just two screws holding it in there. 8)
Simple economics fused with psychology: give 'em less for their money and simultaneously make 'em pay more for it. Just say it's "new and improved", and they'll believe anything.Quote:

P.T. Barnum was right. :|
did not know about the card holder,i dont know that i would use it, but my 09 is a facelift car and has the sunglass holder.
Thanks for the tip.Quote:

I like the facelift of the new one, It's that I wasn't able to get one for under 4k as I got mine with only 28k miles on it, otherwise I'd go for it. 8)Quote:
