What is the best oil filter for a Ram Ecodiesel?

I drive a Ram 1500 Ecodiesel in need of an oil change, and I’m looking for the best possible aftermarket oil filter. What one should I buy?

The best aftermarket engine oil filter for your
Dodge 1500 Ram Ecodiesel
is the 3.0L Diesel Oil Filter Cartridge from Mopar. Dodge typically recommends Mopar oil filters for any Ram series vehicle—and your Ecodiesel is no exception!
When it comes to choosing the best oil filter for you, here are some factors to consider:
*Driving style**: Are you driving long distances, or do you sit in traffic a lot? Do you take your vehicle off-roading, and how often? Determining the answers to these questions can help you narrow down the features you’re looking for in an oil filter. *Oil type*: You’ll need to think about how your oil and oil filter work together for the best possible performance from your vehicle. **Capture efficiency and dirt-holding capacity*: An oil filter that fits your vehicle will best capture dust and dirt particles. Dirt-holding capacity is especially important if you live in dry or dusty climates. **Design**: The integrity of an oil filter’s design and the materials it’s made from both plays a role in how well your vehicle will perform.
