I have an ACURA with a FACTORY WARRANTY.
Will using an oil filter other than ACURA OEM void my warranty?
Will using Mobil ONE synthetic oil void my warranty?
I need an answer from some that knows the answer with out any doubt, preferably

This question has been settled in federal court.
NO.
As long as the part, filter, or oil, meets or exceeds the standard requirements of the original it will not effect your warranty.
You may use any oil, filter, fluid, part, fuel

(1 diggs) PureONE Oil Filter
Aug 31, 2008 from kittipat(kittipat santayodom)
kittipat PureONE is the cheapest insurance available for your car today. Does it make sense to spend hundreds, or thousands, of dollars on automobile insurance each year, and then turn around and save a buck or two by purchasing an oil filter with less quality?

Aug 26, 2011 from blinker1315(Russ Smith) in Politics
blinker1315 The Keystone XL Tar Sands Oil Pipeline proposal is one of the biggest tests of Barack Obama’s presidency. The major oil corporations, from Exxon Mobile to Koch Industries, are lobbying hard to compel the administration to issue a license for a new, massive pipeline that will transport tar sands oil from Canada to refineries in Texas. The choice is entirely the President’s, as he needs no Congressional approval to issue or refuse a license, according to environmentalist Bill Mckibben. If he...
