I ignore the Car Bros and continue to use house-branded Fram filters.
I used a fram filter for the first time on a recent oil change, synthetic endurance + kirkland 0w20. no issues so far.
I've used nothing but Fram on my 16 forester 2.5i. Just hit 102k miles. I change the oil and filter every 3-4k and have never had an issue.
180k+ miles on my civic and always used fram or some cheap brand with no issue
The frame filters are fine assuming you change your oil every 5k miles or 4 ish months
P.S. Use OEM filters. FRAM is garbage.
I don’t use FRAM filters; they don’t stand up to my pipe wrench tightening technique.
I agree with the 20W50 and good filter stay away from Fram, Bosch and Generic or Store Branded filters as they will give you the blinky oil light at idle controlled by the Canned Sensor on the right side of the head as you look at the engine.
Ends up the Fram 9584 does NOT have the correct size holes. Both are the same and smaller diameter. It will NOT fit over the base without ripping. However, the Fram 9584XL does.
Bosch Filter verbaut, hat sich unten die Dichtung am Filter abgelöst und den Ölkanal im Filtergehäuse zu gemacht ???????? kommt also nicht nur bei „billigfiltern“ vor sondern auch bei den nahmhaften Herstellern…
