Default Castrol EDGE?

I know that there are alot of posts about which oil and what to use but i was wondering which oil filter i should use if i switch to Castrol EDGE since it is good up to 15,000 miles. I have a 1998 Accord V6 with 150,000 and i have been running Castrol GTX High Milage since i bought it with 138,000. And also would i be able to switch between synthetic and conventional oil without causing damage to the motor?

NO OIL can be verified as being good up to 15,000 miles without a oil monitoring system or regular testing with labs such as blackstone...


That said, read any of the oil threads, there are thousands about swithcing from dino to synthetic... Even 2 or 3 recent threads....

Finally, if you really want to push your oil that long (which i don't reccomend) I would go with a Mobil1 Filter.. They are one of the best you can get for the money..
A nice alternative would be buy 2 Purolator PureOne filters, run each for half the length of time and then just change the filter halfway (and add a qt of oil)..

Anyway final statement, DO NOT do 15,000 without letting blackstone verify your oil after say 7500
