## Questions & Answers

**Q: I am wondering what size of oil filter wrench to order for this filter but I cannot find the diameter anywhere. Does anyone know what the diameter is?**
A: You don't really need a wrench to tighten the filter down. Make sure your hands and filter are oil free and you will get a good enough grip on it to snug it down sufficiently. If you are worried about it coming loose go to auto zone or another parts supplier and they will set you up. All oil filters are generally the same size.

**Q: Does this oil filter fit for 2016 wrx limited???**
A: It fit my 2015 WRX Limited, which has identical engine as yours.

**Q: Would this work on a 2015 impreza sport?**
A: These are a bit shorter that the one ending in 160 that fit the Sport (which I have) but it’s to clear the oil cooler that the WRX has between the base and the filter. Have been wanting to try it but you can go for the BRZ one that ends in 130.

**Q: Does this filter fit a 2017 WRX**
A: Yes, it will fit on your 2017 WRX
