WIX XP 57055XP Oil Filter for Synthetic Oil – Subaru (2011–2018)

Premium filtration built for synthetic oils

The Wix XP 57055XP oil filter is engineered for drivers who rely on synthetic oil to protect their engine under demanding conditions. Designed for Subaru models from 2011 through 2018, this filter emphasizes a clean oil flow and reliable startup, even in extreme temperatures. Its next-generation synthetic-blended media uses natural fibers and eliminates the need for wire backing, delivering a confident fit and consistent filtration performance that aligns with Wix quality and innovation.

Key filtration performance and durability come from a durable silicone anti-drainback valve that helps maintain oil pressure on startup and reduces dry spins after long sits. The XP line aims to extend service intervals while maintaining strong protection, making it a practical option for drivers who push their vehicles through towing, mountainous terrain, or lengthy highway commutes.
